Thanks! comment for me

Lars, Russel
Thanks try for me.

Andy,
Hmm. Antenna is...
Sometimes, flactured antenna. Kit crush for antenna.
Then I am very scared.

Matan,
Thanks your notes.
Red is very good accent color. I wanna make such color.
Sinai grey is very complicate.
I am lost in the Labyrinth of Sinai grey

by the way,
introduce myself.

I am rookie modeller, since end of 2007.
first posting this time.

about 15years ago,I was Japanese air defence force crew.
But Vehcle driver such as below.



I was in radar site, just like Thunderbird's tracy island.

I can't build cool one yet.
in the future, I'd like to build cool one.
Coz I love IDF's Vehcle very much.


Thank you.
