[DeeCee]

Very nice tidy build mate, i have a couple of these now, and are a pleasure to build. Great work.

Thanks everyone for your nice compliments. I doubt I'll ever finish all the models in my stash but I'll be trying.

It looks great in the photos Tom, congratulations on getting one finished. I have to pick an easy one to get me recharged pretty often. I always have loved the Falcon.

Clean and simple. You can never argue with that. Nice work.

Tom…….Terrific looking model……..glad to hear that you finished a model and are back into the groove …….I was just like you a few years back

Thats great,the color is perfect...

[Miatatom]

I looked to see when I bought the Falcon and it was in the middle of April. Only took 2 1/2 months so maybe I'm starting to get a little groove.

[Miatatom]

How did you achieve the tonneau cover?

looks great!!

Cheers

Sorry to take so long to respond but the model was 100% out of the box. The tonneau cover as well as wheels are directly from the kit.

Nice way to welcome yourself back!

I'm hoping it won't be another 50 years before we get to see the next one.
