Must say that this is truly a magnificent build and superb work in detailing of a quite difficult and expensive model...as all HIRO kits seems to be!!, as very well said by fellow forum members, the result shown here is the result of a LOT of work and a master touch by the builder.

Fred

Thank you very much for those kind of words Fred! :)
