Peter Hardy Well Rui, you have a distinct advantage here. This is a model! However, challenge accepted! Let's see if I am as good as you were 20 years ago!

Rui S hahaha, Well I like to start earlier, and I thought you didn't like contests or competitions 😄
Do you realy think I have an advantage here? Don't be that hard on me. I didn't had any tools (fancy ones or not), nor nice colours, nor skills at the time. Even so, I know that you are feeling the pressure now, so keep calm Mate, you can do it 😄 😄 😄
P.S. And did you notice the Hi quality scenery and phone photo quality, you be aware...
JD Great post Rui S! I'm still addicted to all things Space:1999 as you can probably tell. I just picked up the Eagle kit from AMT in fact. ?

Tim Heimer I some how missed out on this space 1999 thing when I was younger. I'm still trying to figure out why there's luggage rack on a spaceship! I'm with Kerry, Beam me up! LOL

Ben M Space:1999 - love it, Rui! When I got back into the hobby one of the first things I built was an Eagle, because when I was a kid I built one.
Rui S Hey Mate, where have you been? Everything ok?
Well, you know, it was one easy build and paint job. The kit was white and I had gloss red, black, silver and blue paints, at the time 😄 😄 😄
Rui S Thank you Jennifer & Neuling. Apreciated
Nothing fancy but very special to me.
