I'm very happy to see @Pastor John is still plodding forward - and still praying and hoping for a full recovery for his hands! His offerings are top-notch, and I hope to see a lot more from him in the future. -

RAF FG.1 XV571 WILD HARE Phantom Conversion
IainM replied to Anthony in NZ's topic in Works in Progress
Beautiful beautiful beautiful!! -
I believe those were link/casing ejection ports for as far as I'm aware for the Mg131's that were present up to the D-9ish variant. They definitely shouldn't be present on the Ta152 which only had 2x20m and 1x30mm cannon, the ejection ports which are also visible there.
-
Yep, those are the ones I used as well, but I think they're OOP in 1/32 now? I think the post might need to be really slightly more rounded in profile, but I just used them as they are, and sitting on the bottom of the fuselage they look just fine.

I converted a Tamiya Birdcage into a -2 variant some years ago using the Lone Star conversion and the Montex marking set. Unfortunately it didn't like the transit in a container from the ME to NZ (although I had boxed it well), so I would be very keen on building a new one. I new -2 conversion set would be most welcome, and I would be very keen on getting one to make a new -2 kit. The LS conversion set was a lot of hard work to make look good, the exhaust dampers were only just passable to say the least. As for the two T-shaped antenna below the fuselage, they would be quite finicky and fragile to print. I used the Owl set (OOP) for mine, but I would quite happily SB those if they weren't included in the set. Also note that the aerial lead configuration in the -2 was quite different to the -1, so scour the web if you're planning to build a -2 - but there are some good images/references out there

I must second @LSP_Kevin comment! Firstly, stoked to hear Cameron is in the clear, and on the road to recovery! I know there's still a bit of a path to walk, but such good news for all of you! Secondly, and yes, less importantly......welcome back and she is looking marvelous! Must catch up for a coffee and chin-wag soon! -
Wow, that is just beautiful!!!!!! Well well done!!!
