If you do..... let me know cuz I have the decal sheet

T, not to worry.... it's just because it's the first time I've tried aging... and I'm a little afraid I'm gonna over do it.

Wurger, that worked a treat.... thanks.

Been letting work get in the way of building....... dang!
 
I now have the wings together. Holes for the guns and the pitot tube.

I have glued a thin thin strip to the fuselage at the wing root, the gap is so small.

Coming along I think.

Took a screen shot of one of the Youtube clips. Was wondering how I could cover a Big hole for installing the guns in the wings After painting. You think this little cover will solve the issue???

Thanks Vic.
I've got the cockpit in and the wings on now. Dry fit for the motor and gun shroud and canopy parts. So far all the fiddeling has paid of, the fits are great. Just a little "bondo" in the front at the wing roots, no bigge.

I clipped part of the tail wheel socket before attaching the side of the fuselage together. This is so I can install the tail wheel After painting, I hat having to mask these things when painting.The picture of the tail wheel in place was dry fit with the sides held together.

So far all is well. Sigh of relief. I get pretty tense when all this gets gluerd together. Always thinking I am forgetting something.
