I am going at the deep end with this one there is plenty to keep me busy for a while,so this should bring back the mojo witch is still slighty lacking it gives the option of flaps up or down i shall be doing flaps down.

So heres whats in the box

Popcorn at the ready.

I have been waiting for someone to lift the lid off the new Tonka from Revell. Looks rather nice.

Looks a great kit. I intend doing one in Saudi colours if i can find a decal sheet.

Right ho here we go the cockpit detail is i must say not much better than the revell 1/72 rather sparse on detail witch is disapointing but on the other hand there is plenty of detail on the outside,how ever the panel lines are shallow so maybe lost as i am a hairy stick man so fingers crossed it will get better.

I'm really interested to see the new kit come together. I've got 2 of the old kits in the stash so this will be interesting.

Cheers

Nice cockpit there Peter.

A tip that I've found to be useful with panel lines is tracing them with a well-sharpened soft pencil.

Nice work Peter

Due to my phone going us i have lost a lot of my build pics but this is how its going its 90% done and the wings have a mechanism that allows the under wing stores to move as the real one would (lost the pics sorry).
