That looks good Rick. Thicker side cheat lines and the red upper, truly raspberry ripple going on there :smiling3:

Making a start with the cockpit of this little bird and its a bit spartan, the instrument panel requires delicate painting that my fingers won't manage and there are no decals in the kit. The bang seats are a bit bare too so I may try the Eduard detailing kit to liven things up with the IP and the seats, it's designed for the Italeri kit but I'm sure it can be made to fit.


The intakes have been assembled too with some rough moulding to be found.

Looking good rick , The seats dont look too bad to me , once theyve got some belts on they should be great (certainly better than we used to get supplied by the kit manufacturers a few years ago!!) cheers tony

Slow progress with this. Cockpit sidewalls, floor and bulkheads painted and fitted. I'm using the Eduard PE set for the Italeri version of this aircraft and I'm not too sure it will look so good in this kit. The side panels are fitted with the IP still to fit.


The kit instructions tell you to glue the wings together before cutting off the flaps if you want them positioned down - it's better to remove the flaps before doing this.

Any progress dude
Not for a while mate, I've been focussing on my 1/24 Hurricane lately. That's close to the finishing line so I will be back on this one soon I hope.
