gunpowder Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 This is my latest project. Its HK Models 1/32 B-25 Strafer. I am using the Eduard zoom set for the cockpit and the amazing HGW belts. Those belts , oh they make your eyes bleed! So worth the effort though. Im not decided on the markings yet. I have the kitsworld markings for the CWHM Hot Gen , but that would mean correcting the intakes and exhausts. Im now thinking about the kits markings , but i also like "Fatso" from the eagle cal range. Plenty of time to decide yet. Heres the model so far. I still need to weather the floor.

Mark_C Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Looking terrific so far. I like how the paint's scraped off the seats - it looks very real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Have fun! It's a cool kit, and for the most part, fits really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_County Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Sublime pit..........................what have used on the IP, is it sprayed??.........never happy with mine......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunpowder Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) No the IP is the prepainted eduard one. I know its cheating but to be honest life is too short! I think its one of Eduards better ones. I thought briefly today about making it a PBJ but i think i will save that for a glass nose one.

gunpowder Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Heres a couple more pics. I have added the tiny gun and bomb buttons on the control wheel. The eduard boxes have been mounted to the walls. Im a bit sceptical about their instructions. They seem to tell you to mount them further back on the wall. Now i need to research the area behind the cockpit if anyone has any pics? F`s are my favs, Tolga ULGUR and AlexM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
