Radleigh Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) Hi guys, due to a change in my personal life and work (for the best) I'm not doing any large scratch building/modelling at the moment as I just don't have the time, so to keep my mojo afloat I'm doing this as it's fairly small and will keep me busy enough in what spare time I have. Needless to say I was happy to see these kits cheap in Home Bargains so I went back and grabbed one asap before they all went. I'm not a 1/144th person, even though I've always wanted to do this conversion I am now as a kit came up at the right price, perfect timing really! I will get photos up tomorrow.... Anyone want to guess what I'm up to? It's nothing exciting, just fun! Edited July 31, 2013 by Radleigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radleigh Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 Here's what I'm up to.. It's going to be a NKC-17E III Photo HERE Should be fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
depressed lemur Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 That looks a challenge! What are you going to do, put the fuselage on upside down to get the low wing? Should be worth keeping an eye on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radleigh Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 Well, it'll still be high wing and look like a C-17, just with a few lumps/bumps, and the lovely scheme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
