Martinnfb Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Last week I received this kit, a deal I couldn't refuse. Thank you Shane. Everyone builds them and I decided to jump on the bandwagon. In terms of aftermarket I picked up Brassin wheels and Q-boost guns, also Ernie is generously sending resin props and I have a stashed seat belts from ......not sure, those plastic ones . Montex "motha russia" set it's on the way as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) That was last week, however yesterday I finished the canvas. All what is left is adding the clamps and zipper handles. Edited April 7, 2018 by Martinnfb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Here is the picture of what I am after, US colours, probably no gun pods. Judging by the excessive flaking of the black colour , no primer was used at the North American production line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomber_County Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 We'll soon have a squadron of 25's at this rate, perhaps someone should photoshop them together at the finish...... patricksparks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This group just gets bigger and bigger. Carl He he, thank you Cark, you know it's all your fault guys We'll soon have a squadron of 25's at this rate, perhaps someone should photoshop them together at the finish...... I was thinking the same Dennis, than you for stopping by Nice work. Here is another view of the tail canvas cover that was posted in another B-25 thread: http://www.gstatic.com/hostedimg/271ab7783783e769_large Jari Thank You Jari, I actually find this picture after the resin dried solid and hang it into Ernies build . Big assemblies first, before I bleed my energy on the small detail. Lead shot from 16 ga. shells seems to fit the bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
