bigbadbadge Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Ooooooo very nice indeed what a cracking job especially seeing ths flaps down too. Is this the Special Hobby Kit? Got one in the stash myself with the cockpit parts cut from the sprues ready to start. Great work Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work In Progress Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Surely Special Hobby rather than ICM. Great job, though! Nice figure work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IPMS19 Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 - From the begining this model has been earmarked by problems and difficulties all along its building to the very end yesterday. I never spent so many time on the same kit. I began it at the end of February just after my Gladiator turned into Gauntlet..... - Saturday taking the opportunty of a day without rain to hve the ritual photo session, but after a few shot the tail wheel broke, so back to the work table, yesterdy ,fine weather for photo at last, and post on B.M but mistkake unforgivable in the title and test and as apotheosis , I wanted it in R.F.I and I discover I had posted it in W.I.P - So I rhink ou get the right to have more of the building sequencies to comply with the W.I.P; First, the very well furnihed cockpit which render the recourse of A.M kits unuseful To continue with the most spectacular gun compartment -The gun ammo drums were made in casted resin afer a makeshift master. I have other photos of the finished model in R.F.I 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Lovely work! I built the 1:48 Trumpeter kit a couple of years ago (with many corrections!) Would love to have a go at this kit... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
