The have indeed Ian. I ended up cutting the gunners away from the guns leaving just the fixing lug and ring to fit into the turret. If I remember correctly the pilots use to look like the "Elephant" men? Simon.

Thanks @AliGauld, @Hamden, and @franky boy. Engine nacelles got a coat of NATO Black. And a second applied to the Wimpey. Let that dry then mask up for the camo, Dark Green over Dark Earth. Simon.

Cheese on toast Alistair, plus a Kit Kat and coffee. Thanks @Hamden and @Andrew.S. First coat of NATO Black on. She will get a second later. Simon.

Oh look, a diving Swift.. You are winning this one Alistair. Simon.

Not a problem sir, @Retired Bob was the one who pointed me in that direction. Cheers Alistair, things are proceeding well for now, you know what could happen LOL. Thanks @Hamden, @CH-53D, @elger and @franky boy. Bottom primed Fnar. And filler applied to various gaps. Time for brunch , then maybe some NATO Black to start with. Simon.

Nice... Red balls 1 point, black 7. Simon.

Not a problem Alan, here are the pics though showing he construction. Simon.

Hi Alan, According to the destructions the turrets are fitted after the two halves of the fuselage are glued together. As for the guns themselves , they are moulded into the "Holding" part that attaches to the turret bottom. I will post a pic later. Simon.

She is coming together very nicely Alistair. Really colourful office. Simon.

All looks well from here Alistair. Keep up the nice work. Simon. All looks well from here Alistair. Keep up the nice work. Simon.

My word Tony, you have/are creating a piece of art worthy of the Tate. Remarkable what can be done with a little bit of know how and one hell of a lot of skill. Simon

She is looking good John, keep up the great work. Simon.

Simon.

Happy Birthday Roy. Simon

We had Garlic and cheese flatbread with our`s. Thanks @cobraleader, @amos brierley, @elger, @Hamden, @CH-53D, and @dogsbody. After having a battle with the side windows I managed to get around to gluing on the appenges . Just leaves me to block any holes up Fnar and give her a coat of primer. Simon.

I would post the track but forum mods would of had kittens. Simon.

Coming together very nicely Roger. It won`t be long til she is fully together ready for some dirt? Simon.

With Garlic Bread? Simon.

Coming along nicely Alistair. I see that you will painting balls again? Simon.

Classic.... Simon.

A bit slower at the moment Alistair but getting closer each day. Thanks @Hamden, @dogsbody, @elger, @amos brierley and @Stew Dapple. Bomb aimers window fitted. Seam filled and sanded. Window added. Engines together ready for mounting (Fnar). Firewalls added, but I cannot see why they detailed them, nowt can be seen once the nacelles are fitted. Tail wheel done. Time for tea, Lasagne... Simon.

The office is looking sweet Alistair. The Russians surprize me with their Turquoise/Cyan colour cockpits. Simon.

Simon.

Is it true that Scotland has had it`s share of sunshine. All looking good from here. Simon.

Nice going John, the Tamiya kit is not that bad if I remember having built it quite a few years ago. As for the airbrush woes if you have checked the airbrush it might be worth checking the compressor and air flow from there. Simon
