Nanook Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 (edited) I broke this old started kit out for a Facebook build on the 100th anniversary of the RAF. As you can see it had some odd colors painted onto it. It was missing seven of the eight guns so I replaced them with plastic mounting blocks and plastic tube drilled out. Also boxed in the wheel wells. Added details on the port side of the cockpit and now working on the starboard side. Was going to motorize it but the UK postal service removed the engine that was sent to me out of the package. ??? ??? I'd like to hunt one down stateside this time...we shall see. Lord, this thing is HUGE! Later, Lee Edited June 25, 2018 by Nanook sandokan, Zank_Frappa, Sparzanza and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanook Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 Back to working on this project. The radiator area is lacking so I busted out the wire mesh and tools of destruction and voila! More to come, Lee What I started with: What I wound up with: LSP_Kevin, coogrfan and MikeMaben 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanook Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 Tuesday I discovered that I was out of RAF cockpit green. Seeing as how the nearest hobby shop that carries it is over 80 miles away I decided to sleep on it and tonight I improvised. I mixed up Compucolor’s Pale Green and Dark Sea Grey. I’m pretty pleased...good enough for me! Later, Lee LSP_Kevin and MikeMaben 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanook Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 Got things a bit closer together in the cockpit. Eduard Seatbelts are on order. Added odds and ends from my OE spares to give some added details. Later, Lee TorbenD and LSP_Kevin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
