Iraqi Freedom (A-10)

So here's my entry for the GB:

I've made a good start on putting the office together and as usual will be building her OOB.

 

 

 

I've started to get some paint on to her and started to busy up the cockpit with the decals.  I will add some tamiya tape seatbelts moving forward just to finish off the seat.

 

 

 

Then I've made a start on closing up the fuselage and putting together the engines and wing sections to attach to the fuselage.

 

 

This includes making sure I've added enough nose weight to the model to avoid her being a tail sitter.  Fortunately, there's a fair bit of space to ensure I can pack as much in there as possible

 

 

 

 

Next jobs are going to be to tidy up the fuselage with some filling and sanding and to add on the tail section and then look to get the canopy sorted so I can get her closed up ready for some primer to inspect for any further defects.

Excellent job

How are you getting on with this?

We're not far off the half-way point in the GB

Hey Black Knight 

 

I mentioned in my build thread for the Bf110 that I was unable to continue with this build due to a stupid accident on my part.  That's why - unperturbed - I decided to enter the Bf110 in it's place.  You could delete this thread if that's possible to avoid any confusion.

 

Thanks
