Hi All

Completed this weekend, hope you like it, but all comments welcome

Never thought you could have this much fun modelling some thing so small and without wings.

Pete,
Very nice clean build. But beware, once you get started with the Mirage Boats, you'll find they are addicting. Before you realize it, you'll be a Flotilla Commander ! Great Job...................Bruce

Hi Pete,

Love it. You've made it look a much bigger scale than it really is with the detail and painting you've done on it.
It has really come out very nicely.
Looking forward to seeing it in real life.
