This is my newest favorite plane hands down. Although the paint job may seem simular to prior models, a close look will show that this is not like any other model. Although this model took a mere 8 1/2 hours to compleate, over 1 1/2 hours of that time was done doing the wires, which is actuall nothing more than thread thats glued to the surface of the model. What made this so hard was that I had to use my own string, and there was no notches or holes for me to poke it into to help make the string tight, I had to use toothpicks to hold the thing down and a LOT of patience. For that matter, the whole plane took a great deal of patience. As for the plane itself, I simply love the detail I got into it. Its just beautifull. I love the brass highlights on the engine, the bi-plane design, and the overall painjob. If you look closely enough, you'll notice I did spice it up a little and used lighter color shades for the lower wing in comparison to the rest of the body. What I couldn't get into the picture was the torpedo in the belly and a good shot of the rockets under the wings. Those on both counts went very well. All in all, I love it, and I just have to say one thing
Toothpicks are my friends ^^
