Very nice Jim  :daumenhoch: got to love a goose, and you've dressed it well.

Have to say, it was a bloody nice survivor though  :)

Thanks fella's.   :daumenhoch:

Really enjoyed re-creating my dream Supergoose.  She turned out better than I'd expected  :)

I agree, a great looking survivor too, but I thought after years like that she deserved a little bit of bling action!

Cheers - Jim  :daumenhoch:
