Again with the oversized novelty penny!   :wacko:

Well, once again, you've outdone yourself.  Rigging, too?!  Love the "We stand on guard for thee" on the fuselage  (part of our national anthem for those of you whom fate has snubbed so cruelly by having you born in a lesser nation).

I'm going over to that GB link to learn more.

Great job!

Whoa!  :bow: Outstanding build! Looks very, very nice.  :thumbsup:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Brian that has to be one of your best  :wub: Just love the use of the old "Dominion" flag  :bow:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That's a beauty, really looks the part!
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.
