3DStewart Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) Good luck with the build Marcel. You've chosen a great accessory set to use! I'm looking forward to seeing it finished. Stewart Edited March 7, 2011 by Detail Police Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Posted March 14, 2011 Author Share Posted March 14, 2011 So a small progress during the weekend. Cockpit completed using 3D bits and some Eduard ZOOM parts. Wing parts cemented together - MIND THE GAP! - so thin plasticard was used to reduce the gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killingholme Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Looking very nice, did you have trouble getting the Eduard instrument panel to fit? I gather the zoom set is designed for the Tamiya kit? I am not happy with the decal on my build, so I might try and fit the zoom kit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem with the dashboard, the Eduard part is a bit smaller than the Airfix bulkhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcel Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 Well I’m b*oody sorry but I can’t finish her in time (a lot of work and then 3 kids at home) - I am definitely going to finish this model ASAP - but not today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
