Thank you. It's about 46 centimeters (~18 inches) long. I had to add weights to one side of the base of the stand to get the center of mass in the middle of the stand.

That looks awesome. Where did you get that model kit from? Is it a 3D print?

Nice, I have this sitting in the stash somewhere. I have a feeling it may have been damaged in a flood we had but that would only affect the box, decals and instructions. The rest should be just fine... If I ever get to unearth it

You probably would want to print scans of the decals anyway. I scanned them at Staples, cleaned up the image with Gimp, and asked Staples to print it on high quality color laser printer paper from Bare Metal Foil Co. Many of the original Aztec paneling decals were usable but clear ones (like around the cobra bays) would have looked bad because the glue had gone yellowish brown. At the same time, I downloaded the supplemental free decal patterns and printed them at Staples .

Thank you.
It's the original Revell kit from 1998. I got it on EBay.
