    Very nice result on that rigging, Spiros @fiveten
    All of them equally thick, that is some precise work when done with stretched sprue. Well done.

    Impressive to say the least Spiros. Your highly motivated, I was really shocked at Valeriy's passing and in the manner it happened. Your efforts . . . any positive tribute goes along way in adding to the positive energy that's needed for supporting Valeriy's work and the people of the Ukraine.

    @fiveten - Hard to believe that's stretched sprue. You got the thickness dialed in perfectly. Looks terrific and so does the silver undercoat!

    Nice and shiny, Spiros @fiveten
    Your work will definitely result in an amazing tribute to Valeriy.

    Thanks so much my friends @stephen-w-towle, @eb801 and @johnb! Yes, building a Roden kit with a Valeriy's box art is a somehow self driven act after the recent events. Valerie's perish, together with all the hard times Ukraine is facing, hit an internal sensitive chord.

    Anyways, here is decaling started...

    The decals shattered upon submersed in water, hopefully not TOO much, so they have been salvaged, at least so far...

    Thanks for stopping by!
