    Looking super, my friend @j-healy! Great touch up of the crazed area and great decal job everywhere! I usually forget and install pylons I should not...😬

    A little more AD progress today. Most importantly, I installed the resin sway braces and only broke one in the process. I also got some detail painting and decaling done. Future coat and weathering next up.

    Oh, my! Those sway braces look sooooo fragile, my friend @j-healy! You are a brave man and you did a SUPERLATIVE job!
    Great progress!

    I got a nice coat of Future on the AD last night with the intention of weathering today. Unfortunately, it wasn’t fully hardened today. Dry but not really hard. 97% humidity today slowed me down. I’ll finish this up in a few days and post it in the headlines. Thanks for watching!

    I'm a little late to the game here, John @j-healy, but that blue sure looks good. Nice clear finish.

    Ditto the above remarks, John @j-healy
    This is going to be a great Skyrayder.

    What a nice build John! all the details are so nice, and makes the AD-4 stand out.
