As the saying goes...Good things come to those who wait.
Well I waited... and that's a good thing right there.

Thanks so much fellas, i sure appreciate it!  There was a wee bit of purposeful procrastinating goin on with the Spit too. My nephew was supposed to have the figure of jackwagon Winters painted by now....i was using the Spit as a bit of a bribing tool for him to finish. Both are Christmas gifts from to one another. Makes next Christmas look pretty iffy dont it!  Thanks again my friends!!! Gary |

gary congrats on the finish. and she looks up to your usual extremely high level of skill. next winged build try a shake and paint type. hase or tam will work. just not the -38 yet, they get fiddly. that will allow you enjoyment with minimal stress.

Greetings Gary,
An outstanding finish! I especially like the half and half paint scheme on the underside. Not something seen very often.
