Everyone has already made the superlative comments your model deserves so I'll only kindly request you to do a tutorial about how you manage to bend large plastic rods in such a regular shape? :o

had a day of chilling out today ..
been in the building mood so i have put my time to good use

started the radar frame.
i covered the building board with tamiya masking tape and drew on the framework
i use tamiya tape as the plastiweld glue dosnt permanently glue the styrene to it and the plastic is easilly removed by sliding a scalpel blade under it..

Image

i then built the framework p flat on the tape

Image

when dry i removed from the tape

Image

while this was setting off i built the beam that the frame fixes too...drilled all the holes and slots and then reemed them out so they were all clean and rhe same size

Image

Image

i then fixed the frame to the beam

Image

Image

next job was the mesh on the frame ..for this i used eduard 60 x 60 mesh..with a bit ofcarefull cutting and trimming i got it to fit inside the outer angle frame i then glued this in place
