Lookin' good there, Jeffy! BTW, could this be evidence that the 'Vixen' might be in danger of being obsolete in the painting department? Might be good to 'flaunt' your accomplishments there in front of her as an enticement to get 'back into action'!

Seriously, hope she is well on the mend and the 'self-serve' drinks can come to an end soon!

Thanks! I’ll pass the words of encouragement on to “The Vixen”. She need not worry about being replaced by me for PITA painting projects because I’ll do them myself ONLY when I absolutely have to.

Enjoying your build thread, Jeffy, I always learn something.

And.......................voila!

The Ibis is finished! Decals are laid in and (2) coats of acrylic floor polish has been applied. The mighty Ibis is now read to ferry intrepid passengers to their intergalactic destinations--or to their deaths (whichever comes first.)

Of all the Shrock designs I've built, this one has been my favorite.

Thanks for watching.
