dora9 Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 Thanks Paul, I really don't want to mess it up because it's my favorite USN WWII aircraft, after that it's the big Rhino but that's another story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Peterpools Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Andre Holy Cow, the IP looks amazing and easily blows away the kit 's version. Nice progress on the interior as well but don't go nuts as so little will be seen once the fuselage is glued together. I finished reaming out the flaps - oh what fun.

dora9 Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) So a bit more work in the office, When I was talking about a gazillion things in there! And the pilot seat and turret are not even there yet! Stay tuned! Edited January 3, 2018 by dora9 sandokan, Gazzas, Guyman1 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that will be it, pilot seat and turret to be added. Like you said, ounce buttoned up, not much will be showing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dora9 Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 So decided to work on the wings for a while. It's a straight forward affair, not much to do, clean and glue. Except some bit of blanking the rear spar and that's it! Working on the .30cal for the rear gunner and getting ready to close the fuselage! Stay tuned sandokan and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
