Title: Pro Modeler F-84G Thunderjet

Risen form the grave, I decided to try to finish this project in 2015 despite the setback you read about in the 'Works in Process' section of the forum. Over all, I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. She's no beauty queen but looks good on a shelf from 2' away!

It looks fine to me also Bill and you should get extra points for staying with it and not giving up.

Lessons learned:

1. Mask and paint anti-glare panels.  Decals rarely work for this task.
2. Dropping a model after its painted and decaled is generally not a good idea.  :)
