Thanks for all the kind words guys..... I'm tryin.

Been picking at it.

Installed the landing gear. The main has a bit of a problem and have no idea why. I had to add some to get the too short plate to reach the wing surface.

Then I used some 1.2 round, drilled a .8 hole and glaued them in place for the lower exhaust stacks.

Almost ready for paint.

Need some gun barrels as I broke some off at the nose!!! Bugger.

Thanks Glenn, Wurger.
Now my decal printer has punked out on me. Last time he did my Corsair decals, about 10 days, now 4 to 6 weeks......
I've got one more contact, if that doesn't work........ I'll have it all done, but no nose art... no entry.

I can only hope.

And it's one of my Davidson series...... bugger

Looking damned nice, Bill. Love the exhaust detailing you added. I am trying to figure out if I have the time on the '25 to do something similar.

Click to expand...

It just took minutes mate.

Decals are sorted!!!!! Wahoo. Being able to supply him print ready art is my savior.... And there is room for some more custom decals.... anybody need something?????? tell me quick.

Now. Why did I ever think Hobby Color Aqueous was acrylic??????? How can acrylic be Flammable???? and how stupid could I be to be thinning it with Tamaiya acrylic thinner????? DOH.

I did save it. I used Tamiya XF19 on the underside. It's a little lighter than the HC I first sprayed on the bugger, but it's being masked for the top color. Perhaps tomorrow. It'll be okay. Pictures tomorrow.
 
If it's not too late Bill. I need this for the Twin P-40. Would have been tough to do at home with the yellow border. The arrow heads should be 12mm long. Thanks
