russ c Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Howdy Everyone, Just finished my latest effort, My attempt at Great Wall Hobbies 1/48 Black Widow, built from the `Last Shootdown` boxing This was intended to by my Halloween post but it over ran a bit Mostly from the box but with a few items replaced due to breakages ( why do they mould tiny aerials to the main parts? )..... and parts like the engine harness which I decided weren`t worth wrestling with esp` as you can barely see them. So: engine harness, `T` shaped aerials, pitot, fuselage side antenna all replaced with wire and plastic card Mainly filler free build except for the windscreen which had a huge step. Main U/C doors req`d modification to an early `B` configuration, which wasn`t too hard. No weapons or drop tanks so these came from the spares box Hope you enjoy, thanks for looking Cheers Russ 44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

28ZComeback Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Nice finish!! Black is a difficult finish to portray. Hey are those exhausts in the cowling flaps stock? Beautiful detail on the engines in particular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, yeah, the exhausts come with the kit, double banks of cylinders too and closed flaps if you prefer. Cheers Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
