Re: My bros F-18D
That's originally from '04?? Fantastic finish, that's for sure, and I'd never have known you ever had to repair anything at all. This is all pro. Well done, fermis.

Re: My bros F-18D
What a stunning model in tribute to your brother. My admiration and respect for you jumped ten notches when I read that; and another ten when I saw what a sensationally magnificent job you did on his plane. You are truly a Master at this; as everyone else said, you can't even see the repairs you made!
Mustang, I know what you mean about moving all your models. At least you won't have as many to move as I do!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Re: My bros F-18D
Thanks again guys!
I remember that the kit had pretty much just came out...the best deal I could find was for $142...WAY above what I could afford...so I didn't think much more of it. As Christmas '03 approached, my mom asked what I'd like for x-mas...."All I want is "this" model to build for my brother, nothing more". My mom and sis-in-law split the cost and ordered it. I don't recall the exact number, but I know I had well over 100 hours into it.
