Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I shall be joining with this nicely moulded kit It is mainly resin but included white metal gear legs and 2 nicely detailed vacformed windscreens I am familiar with these types of kits as I have started a King Air B200 form the same manufacturer, I just took a look at it and can't recall why I stopped on it, maybe the masking and fairing on the windscreen put me off. Anyway I think I will carry on with the B200 build while I work on this one. Here is the state of the B200 at the moment. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjwomack Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Tasty! I'm always reassured by a white metal u/c, just makes me think it's sturdier 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 Wow, this one dropped to page 3 already, I had better get a move on. I have been distracted with another Anything But Injected Shelf of Doom project. It is related to this one as it is a RAAF King Air 200 which was replaced by the King Air 350s in RAAF service. I will be cutting resin on the RVHP kit shortly. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterB Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 (edited) I have been modelling for over 60 years and yet one thing about this GB is that I have never heard of many of the kit manufacturers. Talk about "To boldly go where no man (or woman) has gone before"!😁 Pete Edited April 30, 2021 by PeterB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjwomack Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 5 hours ago, PeterB said: I have never heard of many of the kit manufacturers. It is doing that! The mystic spreadsheet was set up for just under 100 manufacturers which and it's doing OK on the Africa GB, but on this one it keeps having a meltdown! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted May 13, 2021 Author Share Posted May 13, 2021 Well I have made a start. here are the very comprehensive assembly instructions I made a start on removing the resin pour stubs of the main parts I will be using images of the actual aircraft to figure out internal colours, the cabin is also fitted with a number of navigator training stations but I won't be adding them as they won't be seen. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted May 14, 2021 Author Share Posted May 14, 2021 Some paint added and subassemblies going together engines on Tail group pinned for extra strength and finally cabin windows gone in (they are there!) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray S Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 That has come together very well, and it looks like it is nicely detailed, and a pretty good fit too. Ray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
