Looking forward to seeing the paint go on Glenn. No pressure.....

Still a ways away from any paint. Added seat harness and assembled the engine pod and the tail group alll or which still need to be cleaned up

Coming along nicely Glenn. Being so small, it'll be painted by the time you release first pressure on the airbrush trigger !

Good work so far Glenn!

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

Fantastic work on that seat. Looks real.

 

[T Bolt]

The engine pod and the left wing did not want to line up with the fuselage so it took a lot of trial fitting and then filling, fileing and sanding to get everything to look acceptable and here is the result, all the main components together. I'ts sitting on a couple of tires because the nose gear game off wile cleaning up joints. Fortunately it didn't break, just pulled off at the glued joint so should go back on easily. Tomorrow I'll add the seat and control panel and close up with the canopy.

Big hurdle cleared.

 

[T Bolt]

The control panel is part of a rather complicated structure made up it a lot of small parts

The finished cockpit with the control panel assembly and seat installed

The canopy and windscreen masked and installed

It's looking good Glenn, and some nice detail work.

 

[Crimea_River]

Agreed.

Very nice work on the IP! NOW it looks like it is ready for paint!

 

[T Bolt]

It certainly is, now I just have to find the time to do it.
