Yes, I did. But I didn’t fool around with it much. I literally followed exactly what you did to make it work!

Last update until completion. I still need to string the aerial, add the props and windows and get the base ready.

I have a hard time taking good detail pictures, but here are my weathering efforts so far. I’ve been playing with oils and water color pencils.

So cool! I love it!

Getting closer!

Too late on the cowlings…. I didn’t intend to convert them myself and they were already done by the time the J version was announced. So it will have to be somewhat inaccurate. I am planning on doing the wheel covers for sure and I’ve got the ICM photo scene figure kit inbound to try recreating this scene.

Making progress…

So, according to my research. Queen Julia belonged to a squadron that used blue cowl paint. I’ve never seen this represented, but in the picture above, you can clearly see there’s a color around the front of the cowl. I plan to paint the fronts blue, but I’m wondering if you guys think that the spinners were also the same color?

Wow! Very cool! What did you use for the fasteners? Great job!

Its going to be the post d-day yellow nosed “Borrowed Time”

I started this one several years ago. I got frustrated with the PE intakes along with the landing gear. I had originally intended to show it in a post take off look with the landing gear retracting. However, I found some video evidence showing that the nose wheel retracts first and then the main gear came up together, which kind of killed the vibe. However, when I started the A-20 but stopped to wait to for the Brassin wheel set and AM gun-barrels, I realized I had the other big twin waiting to be finished. So here we are. BTW, it’s huge!
