Ron Denning does amazing work. He has some other projects posted at http://www.largescaleplanes.com.

Here are a couple of other links to his stuff (sorry if this is hijacking the thread):

1/18th Sikorsky Skycrane:

1/18th F2G Super Corsair:

It's an interesting site with a lot of modeling talent showing there, and a few 1/18th nuggets scattered about.

Pretty incredible model of a plane that I would love to see done.

But I agree with PH. Three years.

And the fuselage does look a little 'skinny" to me, although I am not an expert on this plane. Just my impression.

None the less, a great build.
