Jurek Greinert Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Hi...Cruelly weak model, I have a profi version plus a large set from BrenGun. As for 48, it's even weak with additions. The surface have engraved panel lines, but poor. The middle cockpit is empty. So far, I have been reveted whole model and played with the interior ..... It will be from Operation Tungsten (I think, because Asian kamo blinks seductively), the first and basically the only effective attack on Tirpitz for me. 34 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72modeler Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Jeez, Louise! I almost soiled my lederhosen, as it looked at first like you had attached the wings to the fuselage upside down- then I scrolled down...what a relief! (I thought there CAN'T be another person out there besides me that has done something like that before!) Seriously, your 'Cuda is looking very good, and the interior is outstanding- love the pilot's seat cushion! Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiet Mike Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 (edited) Amazing detail! They lifted the remains of a Barracuda off the shore near me recently, (Lee on the Solent, HMS Daedelus) and are trying to rebuild it. https://www.facebook.com/FaireyBarracudaRestoration/ Edited April 13, 2020 by Quiet Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall we had a forum discussion on this a while back, but for the life of me, I can't recall what was decided about the function of those windows. You could search the website for the topic discussion, or maybe one of the members who posted comments might see this and post a link to the discussion. Your model is going to be a real stunner, if your WIP is any indication! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
