Romainia! Okay, we need a nice Roma, tight abs, dark curly hair, big muscles, shirt strictly optional, gold ring in one ear...

Your figure painting is superb Chuck- particularly the skin.
The Leica is exquisite, a Robot would have been even better though ;-) Amazing that you can scratch build something so small and yet keep the cut ends of rod and things so square- when I try to cut stretched sprue, etc the ends are always at an angle!

Absolutly stunning Chuck, I loved every minute of this; who wouldn't
The final diorama is surely a competition winner, especially if you included a booklet with photos
Can I capture some pictures to promote, your builds, Aeroscale and my masks on my Face Book page please Chuck?

Chuck,
A full package of excellence!
I hope the pup will be back to keep an eye on Pfenning.

Thanks, everyone! The IAR will be a Romanian adventure indeed, so Hannah and Fritzi will be on leave until my next German build. A nice Romanian lass will assist (sorry, Jessie!) and if I can find a period (or current) coin of that realm... Pfennig will be imprisoned for his crimes.
Ben, I can't chop sprue evenly to save my life, but my Waldron Micro-miniature punch set makes perfect discs every time.
Look for Mal at quality shows- you can just follow his lovely banner art to find him! ;D
See you all soon in a new thread-

You're a good man - I was curious to see who was going to come up with something and do this. Thank you from all of us.

Stunning build with loads of excellent ideas! Thanks a lot for this well illustrated build.
The IAR build will be very interesting too - especially after this little preview.
