nice progress and thanks for the info about the fit off the parts

I think i will pass for the aires parts

 

Keep going Mark

 

A bit of a pain those Aires parts Mark but really wanted an open gun bay.

 

Regards. Andy

 

 

Lots of nice add-ons.  Love what you've done with the tail wheel.

 

Sincerely,

Mark

 

 

Thank you Mark, The Eduard resin is a joy to use as it fits perfectly in place of the original kit parts and the detail is superb. Really happy with the tail wheel but took a lot of squeezing in!!

 

Regards. Andy

 

 

Andy, that is really nice work! Looking very nice indeed.

 

Jay

 

Jay, Thank you, really enjoying the build and pretty well worked my way through opening up all those panels so ready for some paint.

 

Regards. Andy

Looking mighty good and it nearly always is the Aires sets that come with a boat load of fit problems.

AM and PM addons looking fantastic

Keep 'em coming

Looking good, still following your build, still toying with the idea of buying one of these. Just bought Hasegawas Ju 87G,Revell P-38 and Hawk T1A oh and Hobbyboss F-84G better not buy for a bit :oops: , Wife is fuming!! :blowup: . Great detail work dont think i'll go that far on mine.

Wow Darren, that's a lot of plastic all in one go! The Revell kit is great and the fit of parts is excellent....well worth adding to your stash.

Feels like i am making a bit of progress now and the Eduard resin looks just fantastic under a coat of paint, nice to move on from all that cutting and getting all of the detail behind those open panels to fit!.

 

Regards. Andy

Nice progress so far looking forward to see more

Are you going to put all the rivets on the plane?

 

Mark

 

Mark,

 

Yes I will be adding rivets to this build, I am planning on using the HGW positive rivet set which also deals with the very poor control surface detail. These are for the Hasegawa kit but they do look like they will fit quite well.

Should be an interesting part of the project, I have used there "wet transfer" system before on my HpH Ta-154 build and have a good idea how things will work out.......hopefully.

You know, I've been wandering around the site. Annoying people and what not.

 

Looking at threads like this.

 

This is exactly the thought that went through my mind when I saw this thread pop up again. I kinda think it covers a LOT of what I see around this damned place.

 

Here goes:

 

"What the bloody hell is goin' on in there?" 

 

More great work. As usual.

 

Casually looks over at workbench.......

 

"Hey, I'm unusual!"

 

Yeah, like nobody noticed. Bloody idiot! 

 

:innocent:

 

:mental:

 

:piliot:

Spent some time on my 190 again after a bit of a break and have managed to get the cockpit completed.

Eduard supplied instrument decals as well as the lovely Airscale placards, In hindsight I wish I had used Airscale instrument decals also.

 

Thanks for looking in as ever.

 

Regards. Andy
