Looks good Alex!, When did you find time to shave while doing PE? I always get the Rip Van Winkle look myself.

- the look is from cursing, grinding my teeth, pulling out my hair, subjected to toxic fumes, & being cooped up indoors all day trying to finish. :-)

Hey Alex ...Quite an improvement in your looks since we last saw each other! :-) (Ya know I couldn't pass up such an easy joke).. I think we all have a love- hate relationship with P/E ,but you got to admit it sure does bring the kit to the next level. Your doing an awesome job on this one ..Can't wait to see it painted.

All the best

All the cursing, teeth grinding, hair pulling, toxic fumes, etc have paid off. What a treat. This looks excellent and worth it all. Looking great, Alex. Keep Žem coming!!

One of these days I hope to get my feet wet on some PE, just to find out just how it is, to see what all the rave is about.

Kerry,

I find myself questioning what all the "rave" is about concerning p.e. myself - considering it leaves me "raving" mad. :-)

If I may point out, some things just couldn't look nearly as good in plastic. For example:

Henk's current beast of a project

The launch tubes set the whole model off.
