Hello all,
I've been working away at this as and when I can around my work commitments and finally got enough done for another update!
I have moved away from the cockpit for a moment and made a concerted effort to get the aftermarket resin wheelbays fitted so that I can start to build the rest of the fuselage and wings around them. I'll be back to the cockpit detailing in the next update.
I'm not going to write a lot of text about this update here as I've decided it would be better to add the text to each photo as it feels a little more connected that way? Apologies for the text being in red on the first few photos, it doesn't show too well against the background and I couldn't figure out how to change the colour after I had saved my picture editing! Changed to white and it shows up brilliantly. I think this is how I will post my build updates from now on.
Thanks for looking in, all comments and criticisms welcomed.

Kev Think we might nick the idea for future official builds

Really nice update Kev and i'm sure once you get some paint on the wheel bays you won't notice how thin the resin is now. But you will appreciate the extra detail, i know we do. Keep it coming Regards Gray

Hello all,
Well I was going to go back and do some work on the cockpit, but thought I'd spend a bit more time getting some of the major assemblies built instead. Text in the photos will explain what has been done.
Thanks for looking in, all comments and criticisms welcomed.

Some fine work going in to this build, nicely done Kev. The detail in the resin parts is superb, and I agree with the slats and flaps being open to show all the details.
