James Rademaker Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Really great craftsmanship on the cockpit. Did you fabricate the seat cushion? It looks very realistic. Jim Antonio Argudo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett M Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Very nice scratch, love the cushion too. Antonio Argudo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Yep, for sure this will turn into a splendid looking B model, nice approach you did to get this far. I've tried this "conversion" with an old Revell B fuselage untill the firewall, and pasting a Hasegawa D nose onto it, but stalled it a while ago. Will follow this very closely, great job. Jack.

James Rademaker Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Can’t wait to see the finished model. Is it going to be a natural metal or Od over neutral grey version? Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlbertD Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Your a true craftsman Antonio. Conversions like this are way over my abilities so I will keep praying for Tamiya to put one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph-D Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) I'm loving it, reminds me that I have started a Trumpy B, since 2 years collecting dust in the basement... Edited September 14, 2020 by Ralph-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Rademaker Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Antonio, what did you use for the instruments behind the Tamiya instrument panel? Individual instrument decals or something else. The result is very clear and well defined. Excellent work. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
