Great job, YT! It looks awesome. I like the yellow under the nose as well as the addition of nose art. Even sitting on the gear, the plane looks fast.

When I eventually get my pre-built from Pickelhaube, there's a diorama I may try - get an Indiana Jones figure and that figure of the shirtless German Mechanic and re-create the famous flying wing fight, but with a jet-powered twist :P

Now, if I can get one, I hope I can make mine look this good!

That is a really cool idea!

Very nice job. I'm kicking myself for not ordering one.
