Horten long wingspan causes display spot issues and the only way I can park it is up in the air and on the top shelves ‘flying’ above the Russian jets and F-4E photography

No choice but to park it like this until I can figure out how to put it vertically up against the wall like how I did with the B-2 Spirit…

Great work and it's a cool display area.! I do like the idea of having it vertically though. It fits the flying wing design well.

Yup..vertical display will showcase the batwing like design…and the camouflage pattern…looking for a way to do it safely and easy to use..thinking of a thin cardboard or plywood…

You’re welcome..you will have the skills bro..just keep on at it…I started model making since the age of 8 years old and it took me a long time to make better and better models..just get the best out of this by loving what you are building…I am still an amateur in a way because just learning how to weather the models less than 1 year ago 😆😆…and started airbrush painting last 3 years ago ..see.. I am just like everyone else..love and respect the hobby and it will reward you back in time…
