Thanks Guys, I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Excluding crap-anopy, it really is a nice little kit to build. I really had fun building it, and I'm glad to have something that has been lingering in my WiP pile finished.

Breathtaking! Paint job is looking very realistic.

Interesting concept on the stand. Custom created I presume?

Thanks Fruit. The stand is something I made here in my garage. The base is just a piece of pine cut on the scroll saw. Then I drilled three holes with the drill press table tipped 10 degrees. I inserted and glued three wooden dowels and glued them in place. Pretty easy to make, what I like is that it is easy to remove the model after the fact. I've made three stands based on this idea so far, and I know Grendels made one similar for one of his builds. A pretty cool commercial version is available also.
