Just some stuff out of an automobile wire that I had laying around...

I'm in the middle of painting the fuselage. Maybe I can get some more pics up tonight. :)

Hey Clyde, this is probably the same kit. From what I understand an ESCI mold that Italeri bought - raised panels and all :).

I'm planning to paint it as a Spanish bird.
