Hi Frank,
Interesting to hear that the photo is yours as its nice and clear in Victors book but then sometimes one does not see the small details.

Old Australian receipe for Gallah (crow sized bird )

Take One Gallah
Place in large pot
Cover with water
Add salt and pepper to flavour
Include one large Rock.
Boil until rock is soft
Throw Gallah away
Eat Rock.

I belive the same can be said of trying to cook Cat
Shame on those that try.

However I do recall that in They were Expendble that on Bulkeleys Boat the boys shot a tomcat with a .45!! (nasty) boiled it up and ate it, said it tasted like Duck.
Weather this happened or not is unknown as the Book does not quite follow fact.

Jeff - with my model making mantra of ' if I know how it is really suppose to look, I can make it'...I guess it's time that I get out the microscope and add these details to the PT-157 model.

As always, your details give me a thrill!

Thanks Donald, I appreciate it.

Bridge, your willingness to tear apart a finished model to add details impresses me. Keep up the good work man!
