Micha, that's really nicely done. I'd like to put that on the front page where it ought to be. Can you submit it as a feature article? All your interior pictures would also be welcome

Why is this posted in the 'World War 2 Germany' section (sub-heading:Aircraft of Germany in WWII)...?

Michael, Just an outstanding build of one of the largest models I've ever seen. Your NMF is what I would expect of an oxidized Aluminum finish to look like, not shinny, but not weather beaten either. Your various shading of panel lines really comes off well. Oil streaks and stains look perfect as one would expect.

Can you share with us what brand of Aluminum finish you used? and how many bottles you went through.
Joel

that's a massive undertaking - breathtaking result!

Absolutely fantastic Michael. I'm still trying to visualize how big it must be, well done. How long did it all take?
