Hewy Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Thank @PlaStix I appreciate it, not as easy this 72nd stuff I admit, I've done a bit more, and still more to do I have screens and panels to add once painted in dark admiralty grey, cheers to @andyf117, for the colour tip. As is Some would say I'm mad doing this as not a great deal will be seen, but I'm enjoying it so I'll peck on 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) I'm sure with careful painting and highlighting a lot of that lovely detail will still be visible. If it isn't at least you'll have the progress photographs to prove it's all in there Edited March 25, 2019 by Col. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 @andyf117 my version hasn't got that air filter arrangement either on the front of the intakes, it has the more conical radome though as in the first picture, was the filter arrangement a later add on? And am I right by thinking thats the decca box on the floor next to the radar housing in the second picture, taking the box off isn't a problem the top is flat and no hole, I have scoured the net for pictures like yours, but with very little success, thanks for the heads up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hewy Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 @andyf117 just to be certain we are talking about the arrangement of boxes on top of the radome housing, (search water box at the door ) removing the big one to the right and replacing it with a drum shape, ( in layman's terms, of coarse), and a few wires, thanks for the shedding of light Glynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 As the others say excellent PE work. I like this subject. It is interesting to see this period being covered a few times in this GB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
