That is a bit special Don!

Great engine and I'm looking forward to seeing how it finishes up.

Don, that does look very good :thumbsup:

Thanks guys for your comments.

 

The latest news is I have just finished....almost. I need to finish the lights and the IFF aerial under the wing, but apart from that, it's done!!!

 

Unfortunately, it's dark now so no pics and I am off to Japan for a week, so there is going to be a delay before you see the final shots.

When I came to the end, I stood staring at it grinning for quite some time. I am VERY pleased with the outcome and somewhat relieved to be finished a marathon build. The next one is OOB!!

 

Until next week, my friends.

 

Cheers

Don

Hi Wolf, I may be finished before you but it was your build that inspired me to do mine. Looking forward to seeing your Spit completed!

It's gonna be a week or so before RFI as I am away on business.

 

How could I missed out this fantastic build, simply stunning, Bravo!

Thanks for sharing

Martin

PS: I feel so inspired to jump into my stash and start looking for that neat pile of plastic. :)

 

Hi Martin, go jump in!! The plastic is lovely! Thanks for the kind words.

 

Beautiful beautiful work. That engine is a work of art !

Thanks Thomas. I have to admit that I am very pleased with the way the engine turned out.

 

Thanks all for the kind words

Cheers
