1/72 Dekno Stearman Northrop Alpha 4

[StephenCJ]

Progress again.

The image below shows the belly of the kit.  Dekno provide a 2 little resin bits (blue triangle and tube bit sitting on the wing) these are supposed to go into depressions in the underside.  They will not fit at all, I made new ones, white plastic bits.  These seem to be for NC 11Y not for 

NC 947Y.  In the few pictures I have of that plane this area has been plated over.  Little rectangular plastic on the right.

 

 

I have also removed the pilot's steps NC 947Y had pegs protruding from the fuselage.  I have also added control linkages near where the cowling goes.

Sorry for the photo with the DTs, I assumed everything was sharp.

 

 

 

Painted with AK Interactive Extreme Metal 'Aluminium'.

 

 

Thanks for stopping by.

I am enjoying this Golden Era resin build very much!  Nice looking aircraft and you're doing very well with the resin.  It'll be a pretty one for sure.

Got the model painted, but I'm thinking of getting some new decals.

This is where I am up to.

 

 

Thanks for looking.
