Reilly 277 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Been wanting to build one of these for a long time. I love the shape and the whole concept behind the bent wing bird. Just adds that bit extra. Last year I finally set to work as part of a Pacific build off with some others. Took longer than I expected. The Tamiya kit was excellent other than fitting the engine cowl around the engine. Spent a fair amount of time rebuilding the cockpit and adding more detail. I didn't want to weather this bird but rather have it in, shall we say, museum condition, all lovingly polished. 31 Link to post Share on other sites

AeroNautique 76 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 The extra work in the cockpit certainly paid off! Beautifully finished, it's actually nice to see a clean bird sometimes. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
