blackbetty Posted June 25, 2018 Author Share Posted June 25, 2018 Alan - thanx for the compliment Chuck - i used the Detail&Scale drawings. you will need a vac canopy from me if you have the conversion. i will look into the decals. the problem with the Bordellon plane is the shade of the light blue.... Troy - breaking of parts is a true art i am very good at. i turned around with the model in hand and broke wing and fuselage in two - thank god before paint, but i had to redo all the filling at the bottom otis252, Troy Molitor and Harold 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackbetty Posted June 28, 2018 Author Share Posted June 28, 2018 (edited) more paint, windsheild is on 56 by karl holubar, auf Flickr 57 by karl holubar, auf Flickr then i discovered that the MLG of the kit is complete junk due to the sinkmarks. Ernie does a bronze set, but with shipping it adds to about 40 quid, thats a little steep, any one change his tamiya gear to metal and wants to part with the kit parts? shipping charges will keep this in europe Edited June 28, 2018 by blackbetty LSP_Kevin, Uncarina, Anthony in NZ and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF you dont have any luck finding them in Europe, you can have mine for shipping costs. The only catch is that these are packed up in a storage unit and are awaiting shipment to my new home in three weeks, they are yours once I get to the new home and unpacked. Send me a PM with your address. Harold, blackbetty, LSP_Kevin and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
