Oh noooooo!

Valiant effort my friend. There’s always BlitzBuild 2 later in the year.

Looking forward to the RFI, that's a lovely looking model.

Looking nice.  A single shot 24 hour attempt is a bit trickier than you realize.  Sure it may not be that big of a deal when you think about the assembly & painting time...piece of cake.  What I kinda forgot about was drying time for not just paint, but the decals.  Drying/curing time eats up critical time when you are trying to do it in a single 24 hr crack.

Thanks for all your comments chaps. I think next time it will be a simple build, single colour job. Anyway, I have managed to grab some time on this today and fixed the undercarriage legs in place, followed by a test fit of the wheels and props.

With Molly in at the vets tomorrow I should be able to get this finished and posted in the Aircraft RFI section, so these will be the final images posted here. Thanks for all of your comments and encouragement along the way, even though this didn't make the gallery I had a lot of fun trying and that is all that matters.

I finally wrapped this one up today and the link below will take those that are interested to the photos I have posted in the Aircraft RFI section.

Shame it didn't meet the deadline but still an amazing feat in such a short time.

Thanks  Alan, even though I didn't quite make it I had a lot of fun. When I build another I'll do a bit more detailing around the cockpit.
