Nice job on the 'Vark Owl. I built one of those myself. I can't remember the model brand but I do know the wings do sweep. It may not be a great kit, but with your Mad Skills Manny, you could still knock it into orbit.

meanwhile, I am liberal with the putty!!
Do them back!
Mind you - what I want to know is what do you use the hammer for? Some sort of subtle adjustment?????

It's looking great Owl! Call me weird but I like the look of the 111 with the wings forward and the flaps and slats dropped.

not much to report on this one. Ive rescribed the fuselage, but there were some gaps around the canopy that I had to fill...and you all know how tedious working with clear parts can be.

It's looking good so far. My choice would be to sweep the wings since there's no ordinance below them. Besides, it'll give you more room on the shelf when you display it. Your call though; after all, it is your model. Either way, it is going to look magnificent.
And yeah, that is a lot of putty!
Love taps I am sure...
