Jb65rams Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Nice choice. Are you going to be doing the transparent fuselage option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios16v Posted May 26, 2019 Author Share Posted May 26, 2019 Nah, not this go anyways. If I did the clear fuselage I'd be wanting to add further details, which would be counter-productive to a blitz build. I'll save the parts for the future though If I get a wild hair.

Jinxman Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Very nice looking result. The airframe always reminds me of Dan Dare's space rocket - I think it's the glazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
