Cheers gentleman,

This one continues to look razor sharp Steve. I LOVE the paint work. Looking forward to more.

Hi guys,
I've been very busy this last few weeks with the new job but now I'm learning my new schedule and able to get back to the bench. I started working on the Swordfish yesterday trying to figure out where I stopped and resumed with installing the wing struts. I continued working with the struts and will update with a pic when they are installed.
The Prince of Wales will wait until after the first of the year, I would like to complete this build first, then I'll have some Christmas gifts I'll want to move to the bench.

Wonderful work on a not-oft modeled subject! There is something about a hard-edged camo scheme that appeals to my eye. May I ask how the irregular curves were masked?

[Modelcrazy]

Thank you jkim, I used Sillyputty.

[jkim]

Ah... thank you! A very good way to mask those irregular curves!

Always a pleasure to see your work!

Thanks Bruce, although I don't deserve such praise. If it weren't for forums like this, my builds would still look like they did when I was 5.
Here is a small update. Most of the rigging is installed but still have a few more to install then some touch up paint.
