Predrag IvanovicAmazing so far. Could you write something about wood that you use for the propeler?

bughunterThank you mates! Yes, it is a great kit. But the amount of tiny parts is unusual high.

bughunterThank you mates! The props are a relaxing part of the build, I like to work with wood.

bughunterThx! ... and that is a oob build! 🙂 But this kit is somehow complex due to big amount of parts, at least together with the optional sets.

Greg BakerIt's getting to the point where I can only look at bughunter's builds through a mirror... I'm afraid they might turn me to stone...

Mike DanielsThat is looking so good. Have this one on the shelf. Wow - a lot of detail packed in to this littlekit. Takes a master to bring it out.

Alec KTruly remarkable craftsmanship. Can you provide some narrative on picture 68, i.e. the purpose of the white paper strip?

Greg BakerWow... a series of gurgling noises is about the best I can manage... unbelievably believable.

bughunterAlec, that is no paper 🙂 It is the "Tamiya masking tape for curves". It is some kind of white PVC to be able to be stretched around curves, available in 3 sizes.
Greg, you find always so nice words 👍
