vvwse4 Posted January 17, 2019 Author Share Posted January 17, 2019 Been working on the bombardier's compartment 110_4474 by Rick Martens, on Flickr 110_4477 by Rick Martens, on Flickr 110_4478 by Rick Martens, on Flickr 110_4479 by Rick Martens, on Flickr 110_4490 by Rick Martens, on Flickr I have added the bomb release switch, bombdoor controlls, a portable oxygen bottle and the springs and pulleys for the two machineguns in the nose. Maybe not all that accurate but it looks fine to me. 110_4482 by Rick Martens, on Flickr 110_4484 by Rick Martens, on Flickr 110_4485 by Rick Martens, on Flickr Could't resist a dry fit. That place is crowded they had hardly room to breathe in there!! 110_4495 by Rick Martens, on Flickr 110_4494 by Rick Martens, on Flickr Also finished the Norden bombsight. Only could't get the crosshairs done. Tried stretches sprue, thin wire ( too thick ) and even the dogs hair so I will probably leave it as it is.

Out2gtcha Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 That spring mechanism for the .50 looks great. Lots of busy stuff in there! Wow, 38 missions and 0 casualties. I bet by the time they got word of their last combat trip, they were all nervous about that last mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eraucubsfan Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Cell Phone vibration motors work great, they are usually small and easy to use. Sometimes they come with the weight on them though. If you don't want to motorize it, try propblur.com they look pretty convincing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
