Just got her wrapped up!
I had attached the tail last week, was just down to adding the wheels, gun and the rest of the rigging.

One very frustrating, 6 hour session, and it's done!
Fiddly and frustrating as all hell, but overall, I enjoyed building it. It is one that I've always wanted on my shelf, but never really had the balls to attempt. Much thanks to Manny for the kit!!!

Beautiful work as usual sir! But all that rigging does indeed look like the stuff of nightmares and cursing blue streaks.... :Bur2: :rant:

Outstanding job and thanks for the memories. Interestingly enough, I enjoyed rigging my DH-2.
