chrispisme Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 already in progress, earlier build WIP pictures lost to matrix someplace...but new project build pics are here. 1st decals of...about 6 million! moving right along: hours later... That's the majority of the decals, I didn't put in the no smoking and instrument panel decals...seriously, they're included! There's even Dzus fasteners and over center snaps on the cowls (haven't seen that in 1/32 let alone 1/72!) Anyhoo thanks for looking PS the model isn't accurate (the real plane doesn't have the cargo pod nacelles) 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispisme Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 Ooops forgot...there will (maybe) be 2 more of these built along these lines one is accurate to it's prototype the other, like this one had the cargo pods which were wrong...so I modded an Amodel 1900 wing and the RVHP fuselage (much like Beechcraft did but in reverse) to fit the 1900 wing to the 200 Here's the Amodel wing (the gray plastic wing) fitted out with RVHP engines pictured below an RVHP wing assembled and fitting the Frankenstein assembly to a fuselage: now I'm done...I think? work will continue tomorrow Thanks for looking! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I had no idea they shared wings Chris, nice paint work and progress on the FrankenBeech! I have started RVHP B200 to build as an Aussie RFDS aircraft, I suppose I should get on and finish it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrispisme Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 I heard that! I think it'll be a while (unless i'm locked in much longer) before I try vacuum formed models again! Never say never though... adding the last few detail bits (from the kit) I'll have to try scrounging up a couple of pitot tubes and windshield wipers now. Thanks for looking 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started a thread on another forum back in August but have not touched it since September! Here is a link. I think once I get back into it (I have 4 current builds to finish up) I'll post a continuation over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Thanks Chris, I also have a couple more 350s as well. Too many Beechcrafts, not enough days! 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
