Nice work.
I have the Hobbycraft kit, and the ICM 17Z kit, and they're like chalk and cheese.
Yes, the nose shape and canopy profile are incorrect on the HC kit, and I got the vac-formed Squadron set to correct it - needs quite a lot of work and cutting to get it right.
I'll be watching this. I was going to do the ICM kit for the current GB, but I have enough with three Mosquitoes at the moment !
Swanny's article is a repost of Old Dog. I think that's where I got it from.Nice work. Swanny's models has an article for correcting the bow by cutting aft of the wing root on the lower half of the fuselage. How did Old dog do it?
Thanks! I didn't know that. Good to know. Makes sense as Falcon makes the sets for multiple aircraft, where Squadron are for individual aircraft. Anyway the Do17Z transparancies are indeed from the same mould.Yes, Falcon makes the Vacu-formed canopies sold under the Squadron name.
