I'm loving the cutaway look...

It is always a pleasure to see a great model take shape in the hands of a master. I am excited you cranked back up work on this project and dig the mods to the engine cowling very much. It's a great modification, definitely in keeping with the design. Cheers!

Thanks dudes!

I am completely and totally burned out on decals. Very slow and tedious process. The outer skin wasn't so bad, but that framework was about all I could stand...with a lot of help from "Admiral Nelson"!!!

Here's where she stands right now...

Most of the right wing will be painted in camo, angling toward the trailing edge of the left wing.

You may be burned out from the effort, but the results are worth it! :shoutout:

Well, when you think about it W.O.W. means "With Out Words".

I can only echo everything here; your magnificent efforts brought about a stunningly spectacular finish. Even those words do not come close to expressing the sheer and overwhelming awe I feel when I look at this model.
