Unfortunately yes! I had to strip down the outriggers because of a wonky decal and some overspray issues. In fact, I am now on my fourth attempt d'oh!

I also still have the upper structure to paint and also the boom..................

My fav [IMG] code is the 5th one from the top,hands down the best Wink Wink Teeth Teeth

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.
