    Awe inspiring stuff as always

    Any calls from the USAF yet on how you managed such a high level detail on one of their most top secret babies? I'd be expecting one

    you might find http://www.raf.mod.uk/rafcms/mediafi...B48BDF8D3C.pdf interesting.

    Most NATO & allied tankers now have the capability for both types (the RAF's VC-10s & Tristars currently don't but the incoming A330MRTTs have a boom as well)

    Wow mate, I'm quite speechless. I aptly stole this emote from britmodeller,

    Congrats, that is truly stunning and scratching building is something I am no where close to mastering

    Absolutely amazing mate. I'm more of a figure painter (I've uploaded pics before) an simply lack the perseverance to do an aircraft of that complexity. Well done.

    I might spend the weekend reading through *all* of Skii's past projects; just incredibly inspirational stuff. "The devil is in the details"...

    Nice work Skii! Makes me want to dig out one the 40 or so unmade model kit's I have in the spare room. One day I'll get round to making one but me thinks the finish will be nowhere near this standard.
