Shawn M Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Got inspired on saturday for an easy fun build whipped this out and went to town So far I've filled the ball turret mount holes, the nose turret MG's have been fared in to represent the radar bulge and I closed the bomb baydoors. Then I added the "window" chutes to the rear fuse, replaced all the gun barrels with styrene tube, retracted the landing gear and made representations of the flame dampers, turbo's and wategate dumps. Shot in primer and future dipped all the glass. Need to mask the glass, assemble then paint it up this week. Fun little kit! Hardcore 1
Shawn M Posted November 26, 2018 Author Posted November 26, 2018 oh yeah, also added the wind deflectors to the waist guns and dug out some PE and decals to spruce it up

Kagemusha Posted December 6, 2018 Posted December 6, 2018 I'm looking forward to seeing how big you go with the fuselage aerials, it really is a build to bring a broad smile, thanks! Shawn M 1
