ShelbyGT500 Posted September 24, 2019 Author Share Posted September 24, 2019 Thanks friends yes it is a little bit different plane as the ordinary He-111 This is one of a few pics of this transport plane: 49 minutes ago, nmayhew said: hmmm now here's something you don't see every day! H-16 has a different ventral gondola than the 6 yes? how are you going to manage that? can you show pictures of the bird you are making? progress looks great so far Yep there is no machine gun at ventral gondola, also the upper one is missing There is no bomb-bay, must be re-work with the passengers seats and tables, the left and right MG's are MG 81 double barrel and the nose one must be MG FF.

ShelbyGT500 Posted September 29, 2019 Author Share Posted September 29, 2019 Hello friends Continue with pipe-ing of main gears: And start to replace the fuel-covers with the photo-etched once. Start with remove the plastic once, glue aluminium foil or plastic card at the other/inner side of the wing, full the hole with milliput and placed the etched cover at the top. That is mine way to glued the etched parts at one level with the plastic: And start riveting the thing Thanks for watching friends Cheers Out2gtcha, Alain Gadbois, John1 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyGT500 Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 Continue with glueing the resin cmk engine covers, not so good shape of the resin and very hard to take the right forms - with boiling water: Cheers friends Dany Boy, Kagemusha, MikeMaben and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazzas Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Really love the brake lines and filler caps. What did you use to hold the brake lines to the LG? ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
