That is just how I got my Tigercat Sean. I was building in the Splendid cats GB and TrickyRich was building one. He Tricked me into one. :evil_laugh::banghead:

But it is a nice kit. If you have build a AMT/Ertl kit, then you know what i mean.

Cheers,

Finally something done. I have put in some panellines and put on a dull coat.

Here are the pictures.

Finally I have done some more work. I have been working on the engines all week. I putted some cables on the engines and I have painted them. Phew that was a tough job. I hate putting on wires. But the result is worth it. I forgot to take some pictures in the process, but I managed to do some today.

Here are the pictures.

Engines ready to be installed after painting.

Installed on the wings.

And after putting the nacelles on. Not much is there to be seen. I think that they can even be lesser seen after installing the props.

O and before I forget I also put on the resin wheels.

Thank you guys,

It wasn't a easy build and not my best, but it is finished and that's what it's all about.

I think I will buy another one in the future and make a better job out of it.

Cheers,
