    Thanks Jennings. Suggest he might be missing queries from the Facebook page - I messaged on 16th. Will drop him a line via website... Iain

    Unrelated to Hellcats - sent a message the other day to the Fündekals Facebook page re. postage to UK for a couple of sheets I'm looking at. Iain

    Used hot water to help effect bending the upper forward fuselage sections when I 'flattened' the nose on the B-17G I've been working on - worked a treat! Iain

    Getting there with aerofoil sections - all plotted at full dimensions now - just need to trim each one back to allow for the thickness of the plastic wing skin in the kit and the kit wing spar. Iain

    Hiya Chuck, I cheated a little on the cowlings... The lower cowl section is bonded in place - so has provided a solid 'keel' that I could adjust whilst drying to ensure the other cowling panels fitted properly. Seems to have worked! Iain

    Don't nag Stormer! I have a screen full of aerofoil sections just now - and they're not Spitfire ones... Thank you one and all for kind words on the Spitfire - really appreciated. Iain
  25. Iain (32SIG) started following Supermarine Spitfire TR Mk.IX ("Grace" type)

    Apologies all - been tied up with Spitfires - back on wing profiles this week. Should have profiles done by next weekend. Iain
  27. Iain (32SIG)
    Some images added to 'Ready For Inspection'. Blue skies, Iain
  28. Iain (32SIG)
    Right - off to grab a small glass of vino - then back to looking at B-24 wings... Iain
  29. Iain (32SIG)
    And now for some 'undressed' shots! Iain
  30. Iain (32SIG)
    Cheers Max - much appreciated! The test, of course, is whether my client is happy with it!! Iain
  31. Iain (32SIG)
    More to come... Iain

    Calling this done - although looking at the photots I need to dust her again! What is it about model photography and dust? Anyhow - build thread here. Based upon measurements of a TR. Mk IX fuselage in a jig, along with original Supermarine drawings, she's taken a lot longer than planned - but hopefully my client will like her. Markings are based upon a wartime 'Eagle Squadron' scheme as a tribute to a brave young American pilot with 133 Squadron, RAF, who lost his life days before the Squadron transferred to the USAAF: Gene P Neville Back in a mo with some more (and just noticed a panel line I need to sort).

    That's brilliant Mike - thank you! Hadn't seen that site and wasn't aware they were available still! Will contact them and stock up on supplies... Iain

    Great project Kev! Castings look superb - and quite a change in look for the old 109! Iain
