Goodmorning Modellers
Finally I started built of Tram, will be a linear operation without more transformation, the truth is that I not  know well this airplane e I'll follow a simple montage.

First step the cockpit, I used the pieces of the box with only the addition of Ares resin seats  and very few photoetched, the control panel is from the box with a little bit color, later on I will build the head up display instead.

There are four pieces for fuselage, is necessary to do a dry montage for not more problem after

....and finally I glued the cockpit into the right fuselage

Hello !

Closed the fuselage I immediately thought of the following steps: wings, uundercarriaes bays etc.etc., but I covered a picture that allows me to see better the area behind the cabin, so in the coming days I would add cables and other pipes

The TRAM (Target Recognition and Attack Multi-sensor turret)

Obviously Murphy's law could not miss the appeal and therefore the rear air intake dissolved into nothingness; I rebuilt it with a little piece of resin and a hollow section of cotton-swab pulled hot, it's not really satisfying but in 1/72 scale it can be fine

At next
