Looking good. I also had trouble with the wing fillets ( probably my fault also ). I joined the fillets to the wings first as per instructions, and had trouble getting a good fit. I ended up carefully sawing through the starboard wing root to allow me to manipulate it when offered to the fuselage. Next time I will probably fit the fillets to the fuselage first. John

Yes I forgot to mention the handle, which is also pretty big. I used to work with a guy who flew Hunters during the Suez crisis who said that the handle was that big so you could use two hands! John

Nice work on the IP and cockpit tub. One thing Revell missed on the tub was a proper representation of the throttle which is quite large on the Hunter, what they give you looks more like a fuel cock. There are some decent photos online if you search « Hawker Hunter throttle « John

Love the pre-shading, I can never get it quite right so I settle for post-shading which is not as effective. John

I’m in. John.

Just adding my wishes for a safe return. John

I’ve often been tempted but never had the courage to join the wings that way, it certainly seems to have worked for you. John

Nice start. Marking my place. John

Me too. John

Another one finished to your usual high standard in less than two months! I know it’s been said before but you are a machine. John

It does indeed! John

A bit late to the party as usual, but it’ a Hunter so I’m in. Nice seat, I also thought that it was True Details. Looking forward to the weathering ( hurry up! ) John

Wow!!

Great work on the undercarriage parts. I’m a big fan of ‘ if it won’t be seen leave it off ‘, but also of ‘ if there should be a hole, make one ‘. This is really making me want to start mine, but I really need to finish something before I start anything new. But then again I have the willpower of a dead rabbit according to one of my friends. John

Me too.
