    Thank you gents. I shall now change the title to FINISHED. There are many flaws on the build however, and I am not sure that it will be making the headlines - a photoshoot on a sunny day will be the deciding factor on that 🙂

    It would be a pity for this beauty not to reach the headlines, my friend @airbum!
    I definitely vote for posting!

    You have done it again and built yet another 109 masterpiece. Well done my friend (as usual)

    Once you get another nice sunny day I would definitely take some pictures and then post it in the headlines section.

    Looks great to me. I also vote you post it. Another well known modeler once told me something like this: “If you don’t point out your mistakes, everyone think you’re a genius”.

    And with the arm fully twisted (and because the sun was out today) I shall be preparing it for the headlines.

    Thank you all for the encouragement Spiros (@fiveten), Louis (@lgardner), John (@johnb) and Eric (@eb801).

    By the way - somewhere during the build it became an E-1, and the heading has now been changed accordingly.

    Erik, @airbum
    Your Emil looks fantastic sitting there in the bright sunshine ! I'll bet you will have several different models placed in front of your camera lens today taking full advantage of the opportunity with Mother Nature cooperating. OK enough arm twisting for now... Well done my friend . 🙂
