Anthony in NZ Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) Hey Wolf, glad you find something useful with my build...remember I am here to help with refs if you need them. Big Shout out to HGW!!! Martin replied to my email and has offered to send me the bits I need! Thanks so very much Martin , you are a legend and that is fantastic customer services. I have lots of your sets and will continue to buy from you now, especially since you have such great customer services. Oh and I know where I went wrong, I tried to peel the clear carrier film off after only 2 1/2 hours in my impatience. My advice is to follow Martins instructions as when done properly they look amazing when on the model. Thanks again HGW.....

Anthony, if you have any and are so inclined, I’d love to see a pic or two of the aft bomb bay roof and sides. A kind gent on Britmodler sent me some great pictures but the more the merrier. Keep up the good work! Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck540z3 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Really, really great modeling Anthony! I guess I missed this build because I'm not a big Mosquito fan, but I'll be sure to see this one to the end. Model on! Cheers, Chuck Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony in NZ Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 Ok the nose gun bay is pretty much finished. I re-did the screw attachments for the screws around the edge of the allu cap (these screw the cap to the wooden structure and frame inside the edge of the nose) as I felt they were too big the first time I did them, si I filled them with CA and redid them a better size and the correct number. In reality there are more flush head rivets....but lets be honest, they are barely seen looking even in real life so I decided not to add them all for fear it will start looking like it had once been used as a pin cushion. Balance is the key me thinks. All of Roberts gun bay is now in and I just have one or 2 tiny additions to add once Air freight is opened up to NZ again. HGW are kindly sending me the numbers 1 & 4 which I messed up and I am waiting on suitable tiny chains to arrive to complete the suite. But its pretty much finished until I can sort these items. All the wiring for the lamp, terminal blocks and suppresser box were scratchbuilt and wired in G45 camera fitted along with ammo feed chutes etc. A couple of pneumatic lines for the firing solenoids need adding, but waiting for suitable chain until I pop these last couple in. Wolf, notice the 2 wing heads are lock wired together. Looking at photo's though they were done on some airframes and not others...so take your pick. Anyway, hope this is interesting to those interested in the Mosquito Cheers Anthony Fooesboy, Piprm, airscale and 21 others 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
