OK, so we are just over a week in and a suitable candidate has been selected. I had several options open to me and after much humming and ha-ing
I chose this, more on looks alone than anything else:
In 48th she's big and impressive and just the sort of thing to keep me busy. With that said I made a start with the usual internal painting
and small assemblies
Spruced up the cockpit with the Yahu IP, it gives my lack-lustre talent a leg up and makes all the difference:
A little bit of paint in the rear crew compartment:
Finally the seats and belts were added:
Started to put a little detail in the nose compartment as it is noticeably bare and quite visible. As I couldn't find a decent picture this
is just guess work!
As the kit part on my kit is little more than an amorphous blob of plastic, I will try to fashion a bomb-sight that looks a little better,
and I think we should have the fuselage join by the next installment. More later folks.....
