Erwin Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 Ready for painting. I first coated it with grey to see where I needed to do some more filling. Sanded it all smooth again. Before you all jump into your pens. I know the exhausts are not correct. But they were the only once I had that come close to 1/28 th scale.

Erwin my friend, Firstly, youre doing a brilliant job on this wooden wonder Ive not seen anything like it before Secondly, its your model, and if those stubs are all youve got to hand then stuff the Rivet Counters, just ignore them Bex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dylan the rabbit Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Great work there Erwin. I've got a confession to make. I still haven't posted the decals yet. Our little one's been keeping us awake at night for the last week, so I'm like a zombie at the moment and am forgetting tons of things. I'll get them in the post tomorrow. Promise.
