Bert Pijfers Posted January 5, 2021 Author Share Posted January 5, 2021 The right side pannel of the cockpit is done, Its realy fiddly to paint with those liferafts moulden in. The Eduard set has headsets to be put on the hook in the middle. But they will get crushed metween the seat and the sidewall so i will find another place fot them.

Bert Pijfers Posted January 6, 2021 Author Share Posted January 6, 2021 Well the other side wall is done as well. For the modellers using the Eduard Cockpi set. I recoment not using part 26. there is no room between the bulkhead and the seat for this part. In stead i used part 27 on its side. So now Step 1 and 2 are done. On to the bombbay. I realy love building this but i realy wouldnt know what to do without my glasses and magnifyinglamp.

They realy are very good and make it so much fun. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Pijfers Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 Next is the other bulkhead, If you use the Eduard set for the radio compartment, i advice not not put the table on at this stag. Also put the fire extinguisher bracket on last. Its realy easy to crush with your fingers while painting. And last the sealing Uncarina, mpk, scvrobeson and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Pijfers Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 Its good i study the instructions whel beforeb picking up any glue. In the Eduard bombbay set i found the bombpully's further in the instructions. It would have been very hard to put them in the right place with the sealing glued in. So i put them in now.

Bert Pijfers Posted January 21, 2021 Author Share Posted January 21, 2021 The radio operators station done. When i look at the pictures i sometimes forget how small everything is. The Eduard set is realy good and makes it realy detailed. I added a small notebook and pencil on top of the radio. mustang1989, Greg W, Bomber Command nut and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
