My live is truly interesting, huh? Pretty much 99% of the typos are due to the marvelous autocorrect on my iPad. . . and fat fingers. Oh well. at least you get to laugh a but.

Broce, no joy on the decals. Sent WB an email asking if they would have any. Not holding my breath, though. I am getting ready to try scanning with the PixScan mat and see what happens.

Very frustrated. Two plush hours and my hands will not let me place any rigging wires. Walking away for a while on this one. Looks like I'll have to re-drill some holes.

I dislike when parts don’t fit and we have to shave them down or in other ways nudity them. It’s a pain. That said, I’m glad to see her standing tall with the gear on. She’s lovely. Keep
Hanging in there with her.

Kenny, thanks. I did manage to get one wire in place, and fixed a messed up decal.

That’s excellent! You’ve done a fantastic job on this, and I’m glad you were able to score two more victories with her tonight!

Lyle, I looked in my decal stash and I have both a full sheet that looks pretty good and a partial with the dice. I'd rather keep the full sheet if the dice will fix you up but if not you can have both.

It’s a good idea to step away for a bit to calm your nerves to recharge when things starts to get frustrating with a kit. Happens to me often times. But hey now, John comes to the rescue! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout:
