Just be careful with cantilever struts and landing gear. Those were the real tricky bits, and my plastic didn't like glues of any kind when mounting these. Otherwise Tamiya's extra thin is fine. The tail wheel broke early on so i just drilled out the tail end and glued it in tonight. I kind of feel like doing one now in 1/48 so I need to find the Roden kit ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Well as somebody who has read quite a bit on the Ravens Dennis I have to say that I really like your Bird Dog, a fitting tribute to some very brave and often overlooked young men. Very well done mate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Craig My only wish would be a modern tooling with better mounting points for struts, landing gear, and some clearer canopies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triet Cam Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Very cool looking build. 👍 I got a resin flap sets from Pavla on Ebay. That would be an improvement to the trailing edges of the wings. If time permit, I'll definitely get my Airfix going. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickyrich Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 arrr this rotten software...... I had posted something here but it seems it didn't post!!! ok 2nd try, great job on her Dennis, she looks great. I just remembered my father built one of these when they first came out. I do remember that the U/c on the model was very fragile. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
