What are you covering this one with Tony? .... why not have a go at good old fashioned tissue & dope? .... I'd love to see a model finished in that once again. ;)

be my usual of tissue and polyc.
works best for me as it is sandable to enable any creases to be removed.

I have not looked here on a daily basis yet this build of yours I have enjoyed. That model is looking very nice.
Have a nice Day, unless I don't like you.
Thanks: Ex-Member

not sure how mad to go with the panel lines, might just do a few and no rivets.

Less is more! Too much detail, and it will look fussy.
if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!
