It looks superb Mike, nice to see you back modelling. 8)

Just recently I bought a Blender online course and made a start, how you create your stuff in that is beyond me, I managed a crate, barrel and some pillars with a wall section so far, doubt I will ever manage a plane though.  :D  Talk about stress. :P

Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D

Not quite ready for a Beta, yet.
