Thx for the heads-up Tin Can. Love the paint work and the subject! I am a true 'variant' fan afterall.

Could have sworn I saw one of those things in 1/48th scale the other day.

Hi there
That is a beautiful piece of work... I don't think screen shots can do do justice to just how good a BIG kit like that must look for real... :-)
All the best
Rowan

A little history lesson. I believe that the DC- was just recently retired from the Navy (not sure, may be Air Force). The duty it provided was invaluable.
