ollieholmes Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Well i ordered the kit yesterday for this one as i needed to bulk out an order and i have a MDC decal sheet for one so i fancy entering this GB with it. I shall post up some photos once the kit arrives. These are the decals: After market wise it will get some Ares wheels, cockpit, Eduard Brass undercarriage legs (this model will go to shows) Jamme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I sense a bout of AMS coming on... You know, you Aires makes a beautiful resin engine for that. :-) ß! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollieholmes Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 I am aware of the ARES engine for this but i will keep the engine all covered up on this one. Maybe another time ill build one with the engine on show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Pretty scheme! I really like it...................It reminds me of one of the slanted checkers on the Jasta 5 Albie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollieholmes Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 Pretty scheme! I really like it...................It reminds me of one of the slanted checkers on the Jasta 5 Albie I have the decals to build that scheme sometime this year so keep an eye out for it being posted on this forum. I finally made a start on this model. The resin cockpit is lovely but the resin instrument panel is to wide so i threw it in the bin: The cowlings where a bit of a pain to fit but i got them on. So far apart some filler to blend the slanted plate at the back of the cockpit in (due to using a resin cockpit) ive only used a small amount of mr surfacer on the seams: And this is how she looks tonight: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollieholmes Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 Some more progress tonight: Resin wheels look good: The brass legs are a treat and will realy help at shows: Awaiting the canopy: Canopy is now fitted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
