front gear bay made, but for some reason there is no rear bulkhead so some spares raiding is needed.

 

There is no need to worry about the rear bulkhead H, once you have fitted the nosewheel and doors there will be very little see through.

So instead of scratch building a rear bulkhead I just bunged a load of wheel weights in

@nimrod54, @modelling minion, @JOCKNEY, and all other “Brother’s of Primer of Pink”

Please standby for a shock, pull up a chair if faint of heart………..

No Primer of Pink has been used:gobsmacked:

Butt joints without metal pins tend to be weak, and I have lost count how many times one or both “back wings” have detached themselves.

Are you feeling OK. 🤒 

 

It looks good though buddy, even without its candyfloss pink primer. :lol:

 

Little H has just borrowed Big H's phone.

 

Nice one little H but give your dad his phone and glasses back so he can really do an update :wink:

 

Cheers Pat

Oooo this one has pushed me all the way. Calling her finished.

Not my best work and has come very close to a couple of one way flights to the bin. If I spend anymore time on it at the moment, then that’s exactly where it’s going.
