Anybody who has built this one will know of the tolerances in various areas. Nothing insurmountable but frustrating nonetheless. Oh and those dorsal windows; fitted perfectly prior to painting but once the painting was done, alas! They are proud of the surface. Well, ho hum. Not a great day for light conditions here in Plummetmouth so phots not great. Xtracolour Schwartzgrun/Dunkelgrun over Lichtblau. Made a crude towel rail aerial and liked the idea of a big fuel tank and bomb internally. Probably not correct but I'm ready for any Dornier Gauleiters who may come knocking in the dead of night. Anyway, here it warts, mishaps and whatever. You'll notice the flat spot is aft on the port wheel and for'ard on starboard. That's because they are free turning and I didn't notice until after the phot. Big bomb, ready for dropping on any given fast food outlet. Those infernal dorsal windows. They may be proud but I'm not. Aeriel wire off centre here. Oops, didn't trim that EZ line properly did I? And those MG's look like field guns in this shot.

Hello one and all, I did say I was going to build one of these aircraft and after finally find one (for £9.99) I purchased it. I have been building it over the last few weeks but haven't gotten very far due to work and SWMBO and SWTSMBO (She Who Thinks She Must Be Obeyd) getting in the way. I was originally going to do the aircraft that I flew in when I was in the ATC. However I appear to have lost/misplaced my 3822, so I have no log of it. Plus with the other 2 (or 3??) RAF Bulldogs I decided to try the Swedish version. The only problem is the decals, they have seen better days, I dont know when, but I am guessing they have! On to the pictures. I think this "boxing" (I use that term loosely) is older than most of us on this forum... just Also I wish I paid 28p for it! How cool would that be? After some cutting and cleaning up I started to clean it up. Here is the IP and the control sticks, I don't actually remember what colours they where so I used artistic license. The centre console (is that the correct term?) has also been painted to look pretty. The fire extinguisher is a cut USB cable, once again it looks pretty good! (I also used it for my 1/144 Puma build). All the bits put in together, I tried to make the seats look better... kinda pulled it off I guess. I can still have a play with them at a later date I guess. I have checked photos online (because there is SO many!) and I am going with the vague assumption (until proven otherwise) that both RAF and Swedish versions are the same. It doesn't look too bad, altho I never realised how much room there was in the back, could get your weekly shop in there! Thank you for looking Kind Regards, Dazz
