Outstanding job. Congratulations.

Can you please make some better shots of mounting the belly tank ? I'm interested where the fuel pipes come to the main body?

Thanks. It's hard to get a good picture of the real thing, but this drawing shows where I drilled the holes for attaching the fuel pipes.

What great work! And the comparison to the real BW photo is awesome. You even got the color differences in most of the right spots! Just superb!

A much overused adjective but in this case very appropriate. Awesome!

I made a search for "Thundercals" - just to see if there were any reviews or nice builds.. Found this old thread. Amazing work Tbolt! I just had to comment. :)

 

I have many reference photos for cockpits, of models, but you can never have too many - these are great. Really nice picture of all the engines too. Yeah why build other aircraft? ;) I build "Swedish Thunderbolts" (Viggens9 and some other US stuff.. But I am quite happy with the big, curvy girls too.. ^^
