Max_Lego Posted July 8, 2024 Posted July 8, 2024 That's awesome! The aircraft's shape is captured well, especially the nose - those new 'sharp' parts are very useful Quote

The aircraft's shape is captured well, especially the nose - those new 'sharp' parts are very useful Thank you. The "sharp" pieces on the nose are critical to the build for the proper look. I couldn't figure out any other way to get it close to correct otherwise. Quote
