EDIT : The original photos I posted had a strange shadow in the background that bugged the heck out of me so I downloaded some new photos . Sorry guys . 
It took 11 months but I finally finished this one last night .
Along the way I lost the original helmet spike ! I kept looking for a month or so hoping it would magically appear , but that never happened . So I whittled one out of plastic to replace it . While prepping the parts for paint I managed to break it , not once but twice !! I also had problems assembling this after paint . Even with cleaning the pins and opening up the holes , it still wouldn't go together properly . So frustration set in and "it is what it is" .
So , for all my friends on this forum , here's the first look at my Li'l Red Baron !
And here it is with my original Li'l Red Baron . They should look good together in my display case !
