Revell 1\32 P51 Phantom Mustang (clear)

[peterairfix]

As per vote I will be keeping this one clear but the internals will be done as normal build the firs things I have done is the gearing for the landing gear and the bomb dropping mechanism this s fully working kit ie: raising and lowering landing gear working prop and dropping bombs

Interesting Peter, like this, something very different.

 

[peterairfix]

After a couple of hours taking apart and reassembly I have finally got the battery box,langing gear motor and bomb dropping mechanism in place and working and the next up will be the landing gear internals for the wing.

 

[peterairfix]

I have just finished the landing gear and is now fully installed and tested and I will be starting on the tail wheel flaps everything is going to be painted as it would be on a normal build.
And there will be the added addition of some lights.

Very different!

Some very interesting work Peter, looking good

Found a bit of time to start on the internal details and also some work on the cockpit plus painting the pilot.
Also the tail wheel doors are in place.

I am going to leave as is as the panel lines and rivets are raised

 

[peterairfix]

I have decided to leave out the lights but I Will be painting one half of the place so it covers up the glue marks on one side.
So far I have the two halves together and the tail wheel fitted.
The bomb dropping mechanism is now finished jus awaiting the gun bays witch are finished and the connecting piece to operate the tail wheel

Just managed to get the plane all together and masked up ready for the half and half paint the undercoat is green followed by the chrome top coat
