Gens, I finally got it. Unfortunately, I broke the gun sight in the final stage and for God's sake I couldn't get it back under the front wind shield. So I made up a story that a couple of Ferranti Mark IID sights got into Burma in 1945 and they were about to install one. The broken off right one is placed on the seat and the Mark IID on the wing :-((() I also bought a 1:35 Jeep Willys and some grass (not the one for barking) and I will try some simple diorama. The squadron leader flag is still missing on the antenna mast (it can be seen in the period photo). What was it probably made of? Canvas, sheet metal? There is one mistake - bomb racks under the wing. I saw something under the right wing on the real photo, but probably it was only some open mounting cover. Recently I started a Kawasaki Ki-61 by Hasegawa 1:32, cockpit Aires. It will probably be a fast build.

  • wheels - Eduard
