BigGrin Hi All
This will only be a short diary as there is little to do on this little resin kit.
Firstly the flash and mould sprue's were removed from the parts then the pilots bench and cock pit interiors fitted ready for under coating

Looking forward to this one Andy. There's some lovely detail on the resin too for a small kit. Cool

BigGrin Hi Spence
She certainly is well detailed for her size and the paints not hiding it so far, thanks for looking in and your comments

BigGrin Hi All
The final undercoat has now been added after undercoating and rectifying any blemishes.
Nothing major there were some tiny air bubbles at the wing ends and a little sink in the top wing all sorted with a little Mr Hobby Primer/Surfacer so not too bad for a small resin model.
more soon
regards
AndyCool

BigGrin Hi All
I started this a while back but commitments to other things kept me away from finishing it but im glad to say its finally finished. I will say that i was a little dissapointed with the fit of the upper and lower canopy's and it took quite a time to get it to fit properly.
So here she is finished , i made the stand for it myself and hopefully she looks like she is in flight
Regards
AndyCool

Andy

That is a very nice finish to a most unusual model.

Time is a strange thing because you look at this and think what progress have we really made in the last 70+ years but then think how in them days how did they arrive at these sort of craft from the earlier wood and canvas planes that were in use right through ww2.

Very interesting subject you have there - well done.

Happy modelling

Tony
