Thanks Andy and Terry.
Like you guys, not too much time has been lost over the last few days. I've made a few more bits to fit within the 'Cat' and improved on others.
Now it's down to some serious masking on all the clear bits as most of them will have to be positioned before the two halves come together and that also means being in place while the inside is being sprayed.
Question for our resident colour expert Terry, I think you have gone over this before but being a Humbrol man you may have a better idea of what to do in respect of my making up a Chrome Yellow. I was thinking of using Humbrol 78 Cockpit Green but believe that it would be more authentic if treated to give it the Chrome Yellow look. What say you.
As for my update pic's, this one is a selection of some of the bits being added within the fuselage.
In breakdown we have the tool box with an extinguisher in the foreground right and a bit of radio equipment left.
The main radio bits, the large cabinet sits to the left of the radio operator with the smaller bits on a shelf overhead or on the desck.
Pic 1. This is the radio operators desk. Pic 2. Navigators desk with its swivel chair and the radio mans chair to the left.
Next up is part of the bomb aimers gear with the anchor hatch cover in the foreground.
This little gismo is the APU which sits in the mid section on the stbd side very close to the crews bunks.
And these are the tree crew bunks that are to the rear of the mid section just before the side blister guns.
