love the color combo..well done

very nice job

very nice

love that engine....outstanding

bought mine at hobby lobby with a 40% off coupon. i hope you find one... couple of things i'd like to point out... i have no idea who thought to put the attachment points of the parts where they are but they sure didn't build this model after doing so..if they had they would have retooled it.... the wheels alone had 3.. the front end (pic #3) had one in the most conspicuous place you could place it. i tried to move or rotate pieces to hide as many as i could but some just stick out like a sore thumb and i had no idea how to cover it up..the windshield was to small for the frame ...it is such a good looking model and all and all it was a fun build..all complain aside . i look forward to seeing your build of it.

thanks gents... i'm pretty happy with the outcome

i keep going back and looking at the pics...the detail you put into the engine is incredible....this is just beautiful

very well done!!!

that looks great..nice paint

great looking combo..love the teardrop ..super job

wow!!! that looks great...i picked up a whole box of these planes at a flea market last year....comet model by hobby craft inc...think they are from the 50's... if i can i'll dig them out of the closet and post a few photos... the box art is what caught my attention

Found a matchbox 60th anniversary workstar brush fire truck at marshals....these were suppose to be an exclusive on amazon..but it seems they did not meet their quota .....my 60th line is now complete...HAPPY DANCE ...yeah i'm a toy geek, what can i say

great looking !!!..love the paint

Well it's done . Had the afternoon off so i rolled up my sleeves and finished it. Even though it gave me some trouble , i'm pretty happy with the outcome. there is another thread on this build but since it is under glass..... thanks for taking the time to look at it.

superb build...thumbs up

thanks almost finished with it now...i'll post photos once i have the decals i want to use done

very nice

yup it did.... nice job

i use a piece of double sided tape and put all the small parts on then paint..then either turn them over of put them on a new piece and repeat.. the other method i've used is to stick a pin in the end of the part and hold the pin in an gator clip to hand brush it...hope this helps

thanks..i'm torn between using the tools or keeping it intact

i thought it was a steal at $20... he was asking $25
