Hi All

Well at last here is the finished Arado. I invested in some artist board to use as a base and background, which I think has paid off. Thanks everyone for your comments and helpful advice it's really been appreciated.

That Vaughan is I think one of the best Aircraft I have seen in a long time. It really shows that you have given this project 110%.

It a show stopper.

Five very well earned stars. Its superbly built, expertly painted and finished to perfection!!!

Now you just need a glass case for it and a big sign saying DO NOT TOUCH!!!

I'm trying to find a right positive word to describe my emotions for model what is presented, but cannot found any of word becasu ouer languages doesnt have sutch a word.

But I will use few of them:

Excellent, Brilliant, Great, Fantastic... build my frined

It's rare to see sutch a grate build

Roman

P.S.

A beautiful build.

I agree with all the above. That really is a stunning result. It's the best aircraft model I've seen in a long time and I'm not expecting to see a better one any time soon. Very,very well done. If you just stand staring at it it will make all the hard work worthwile :smiling3:

If you walked into a show with that you'd hear the muttering begin......"there goes the 1/32 WWII winner"

Cheers

Steve

Guys I don't know what to say your compliments are overwhelming. I feel that my modelling skills have only improved over the last year as a direct result of this fantastic forum and all it's members. Your advice and all your outstanding builds have only inspired me to try and do better. Thanks again.

Vaughan.

Tell you this Vaughan, you have deserved every single word that has been written.

Could it win a contest? Hell Yes. In fact I would encourage you to enter it in one of the better shows and see what happens!!!

Really well done Vaughan, that's a beauty! I always think a real test of a build is how well it looks close-up & your photos show just how good this is. Everything is first-class & I'm especially impressed with how neat your canopy painting is. A small point, perhaps, but key to keeping the model looking as good as it does.

That's right out of the top drawer! Pity there's only ***** available - it deserves more.

Well Vaughan, I reckon your build is not only show standard, it's show winning. Brilliant, 5 stars doesn't really do your build justice.
