Hi bin a while thought better update this. Finished the cockpit and glued the fuselage together built up the wings and glued these in. And finished the second engine. And tried a dry fit. It only had one coat of paint to check where seems need to be filled and tidied up. Painting the flaps and ailerons off if because of the thickness at this scale they would be difficult on it. Cheers mick. mogwai attached the following image(s): Builds hms victory, suzuki gsx 1300 R hayabusa, honda C B 750, lamborghini countach L P 500 S, tamiya 1/16 rc full option tiger 1 tank,

Hi bit more done on this, tail fitted, flaps in, one aileron.20mm canons in,location on these very tiny, so ended up pinning them on for better strength. Prob not help using brass barrels.with the extra weight.had to assemble these one by one.while in situ,slightest misalignment,and they won't go in.was tricky to say the least.assembling the various doors for bottom at mo. The wheel cover hinges just don't fit.made me own from brass rod.cheers mick. mogwai attached the following image(s): Builds hms victory, suzuki gsx 1300 R hayabusa, honda C B 750, lamborghini countach L P 500 S, tamiya 1/16 rc full option tiger 1 tank,
