Hi, everyone,

 

Not necessarily self-promoting, but this is the build I had going on when this thread started. Hope the esteemed readership like it.

On a related note, Can one do a polish block52 example using a hasegawa boxing as base? I know theres going be niggles like panel lines & vents but I'm a big picture guy.

Hi, PhantomBigStu,

 

You would have the same inconvenients, only a bit aggravated, and some new ones. If you use the earlier C (kit B02) you ll have the NSI/P&W combo, as it is basically a Block 25. But you ll lack the heavy duty landing gear and I guess the wider wheels. Of course the bulged doors. You ll have to outsource the tail extension. Probably the gun vents are the early configuration. Nothing in the way of appropriate weapons; neither the appropriate wingtip launchers. Instrument panel I bet it is an A. Of course the upper fuselage panelling is an A, but that s a common thing.

Oh thats a disappointing, looks like I'll abandon that plan then, stick with standard stuff. Maybe if I can get a hasegawa sufa cheap I can do a twinstick one....

actually just released all the bits aside from the tail extension (and the IP which I don't care about)  is in the block 50 boxing so perhaps this is a go after all....and actually the tail extension is in the revell, which I'm likely to also do so if I pick an example without the extension I'm good to go
