Not to resurrect a finished build, but I talked to the guy I built it for tonight. He couldn't make it during the holidays to come and get it. So he asked if I could hold on to it till May. I said sure, if I can put it in the model show. He said absolutely!

That is awesome! Imagine how much more appreciated that will be when you can tell the guy that it placed!

Right!! It'll have to go into the "What If" category.

Not really. Back in 1982 there was an Arctic scheme A-10...

Technically it is... the markings are fictitious, the camo scheme is not what was actually used in 1982, but shall we say, “inspired by actual events”, and most of the warlord did not exist in 1982. The photo that this build is molded after is of an RC flying model A-10.

Not to take away from the great build at all.

You're right. I didn't catch that.

No worries. We'll see what they say at the show.
