Very cool!

 

[Wurger]

Appreciate it.....

All CA fillings were sanded.And I could check fitting of the rear part of the cockpit conopy to the fuselage finally. All was fine.

 

[Lucky13]

Very nice work my friend!

 

[Wurger]

Thank you Jasiu.

 

[B-17engineer]

[Wurger]

THX H~.

And finally I have refreshed these engraved panel lines.

 

[Lucky13]

Hard to believe that those were two halfes before! Quality work old chap!

 

[Airframes]

Excellent stuff Herr Doktor !

 

[Wurger]

Danke! Danke!....meine Kameraden.

Having the fuselage assembled I painted the cockpit with RLM02 and attached stabilizers. I have to mention that Airfix has had to make a mistake, I think. There was a problem with fitting stabilizers to the fin. There appeared a gap between the fin and roots of both stabilizers.But if these were inverted, I mean left one at right position and right one at left, all fitted correctly.But then holes for tail struts were at the top sides of stabilizers..I didn't want to pierce these parts through so I used a file and sand paper for fitting. The last pic shows the cockpit interior with areas I had masked before airbrushing because of gluing next parts at these places.

I've been continuing to follow this one with interest Wojtek. It's looking really good and the seams are flawless.

Those seams...................seeing is believing....................I still don't believe what I've seen.....they are so close to perfection, brilliant stuff.

I've got a 1/32nd P-51 to do of Merlin's Magic Reno race number 22...
You are making me want to get cracking and finish my group of 1/72nd's so I can get on with the Mustang.
You are doing such a great job on this build, it's inspiring mate.

I was a little bit tired with `sanding fitting and sanding again.So I started painting in order to rest for a while. Here you can see a few details only . Also I airbrused the pilkot's seat, stick, rudder pedals and a couple more for the cockpit interior that came with the kit.

 

[Airframes]

Nice stuff Wojtek ! And I still haven't got mine on its base yet !

 

[B-17engineer]

Great work Herr Doktor Engineer Surgeon Commander Bondski!

 

[Catch22]

Wow, great work Wojtek! When I built this a few years ago I wanted to punt it out the back door...

 

[javlin]

Look'in good there Wojtek making me feel like I should break out the 1/24 Bandi kit I have,I wonder if its from the same molds?

 

[vikingBerserker]

Nice!
