Italeri Dakota III

Wings on and windows masked.

The fit of the wings is not great. I had to put in son plasticard tabs to keep things lined up.

The kit gives you the option of dropped flaps, but zero detail in the flap bays. The midsection  looks right through to the cabin floor. A bit disappointing considering all the hidden detail they put in to the crew stations.

While waiting for paint to arrive, I grabbed a radial engine that wasn't rocking from the shelf of doom, and decided to rig my Roden  Gladiator. I replaced the cabane struts with metal pins for strength, but may have made them a touch too long. Not changing them now...

Masked the white and a coat of NATO Black on the de-icing boots and anti glare. Also scratch built a new tail beacon after the original went walkies.
