Hi all This has been a bit of a long build which started in 2015 as part of a Group Build. Needless to say I did not finish, as building the Loft conversion I have been doing at home for the past 3 and a half years and work, family got in the way. However seeing all the fellow BM'ers doing shelf of doom builds I got inspired to do a few shelf of Doom builds myself. This is one along with the 48th Westland Whirlwind I posted in June and a 48th Seahawk which is still ongoing but has also been receiving lots of extra correcting etc. The WIP for this build is here The extra details are numerous with the seat, Throttle controls, Gauges, Compasses, wing mounts aileron cables and bar, engine details, rigging, cables, windscreens fuel tank accessories such as valve mechanism, fuel pipe, fuel gauge etc and most recently cockpit access doors being scratch built. I would like to say a big thank you to Max a.k.a Galgos for his help and support and encouragement throughout this build. The doors made from Plasticard sheet and square rod The fuel gauge was made from clear sprue filed down to size in a drill, polished and then painted in clear orange to represent the fuel, Allumium paint then followed which was covered in dark earth. I am quite pleased with this. Hope you enjoy Thanks for looking Chris
