Hi Allan. I pondered that question after seeing your comment, wondering if that many years had possibly flown by...and it had been sitting unfinished for that long. I checked the original copyright on my kit manual and the date is 1987! So it's been around awhile. I've followed some of the logs for the Model Shipways version and it's got some great improvements, but I'm happy to have finished my build!
Yes! I just had a brief vacation and all I could think of was my next few moves on my build. It's hard to explain how exciting each step can be even if it's just getting a smooth surface to paint over.
