Hi Rick, long time no hear from! Probably because you've been doing something I haven't, actually working on and finishing a model. :-) Very nice work here, the build looks good and the paint and weathering are excellent. Which kit is this?

Cheers,
Mike

Rick -

Outstanding entry and definitely worth waiting for! This is beautifully done and the details really stand out. Everything has attention paid to it, even down to 'wear' on hand wheels. I especially like the camo. It is screaming for a diorama though. Congrats and we want more!

Gday Rick
Cor, she's a bewdy!
Very subtle camo on her...
Not just screaming for a diorama; it's also screaming "Fire me!" :-)
Great photos too
Cheers

Hello Mr. Bear, This is a real cooling looking piece of hardware you have here. Love the paint job onher too. I think its a suitable replacemtent for the one that had its unfortunate end Good luck with the contest! I'll be rooting for you. Cheers Kevin
