Nobby1980 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 So many problems with this kit but i just had to soldier on and get it done wether the bombs are to big or the bomb bays to small i cant say i also had a problem with the rear canopy not even remotely fitting so had to leave it off. Conclusion if i had to do this kit again id make sure id make the bomb bays bigger and use thin plasti card for the doors which should in turn make the bombs fit better id also remove the lugs which hold the bombs inside as they add atleast 2mm and in the end make the bombs protrude from the bays. But hey if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it is a duck feel free to ask questions ill try to answer them Regards Rob Thanks for looking 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobby1980 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 Nice, very nice. Perhaps Airfix should re-tool this? FF Well if they corrected all the mishaps i tell you what id def have a go, but this is how much of a sucker i am if i got one cheap enough id do it again but this time id know what to do with the bombs and bay lol, as much of a pain as it was, now i see it finished i think thats not to bad after all the hard work and now sits next to the rest of the victoria cross collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TobyC Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Very nice rendition. I am in the process of finishing one myself as my first build in 35 years. It's been interesting to say the least and mine is nowhere as good as yours. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobby1980 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 (edited) Very nice rendition. I am in the process of finishing one myself as my first build in 35 years. It's been interesting to say the least and mine is nowhere as good as yours. Well done. Keep the faith just sort the bomb bays before u paint or leave them closed in flight look and im sure yours will look just as good as mine.
