**** DONE: GB-40 1:48 Nakajima B6N2 - Heavy Hitters III

[fubar57]

Thanks guys. Using Grant's suggestion, I played with the exposure compensation meter this time. As is my wont, I take multiple shots of the same subject at different settings and then start deleting those I don't like until I have one I like using IrfanView. I think the one above was done at -1.5 and using only the lights from the lightbox.

Test driving the wing fold and painted the support struts. The wing fold is surprisingly strong for having only three small attachments...

​

Off to PG shortly and should have this one done shortly after I get back. Just need to attach the pitot, antenna and those pesky wheel covers

Looks the biz Geo.

With Terry. Looking great !

But the starboard main wheel with the flat surface has to be turned right 90 degrees.

I didn't glue them in place, free to rotate to ensure to correct sit. Sitting in Timmie's now and enjoying the new Spicy Thai soup and a coffee. Heading home shortly

 

[Wurger]

Copied that.

Bon appetit.

Thanks guys

Highly recommended Andy. Just attached the left wing, very fiddly trying to line up and support 6 small holes

 

[fubar57]

Dry and strong enough to move. I also attached the port wing-tip light which had been drilled out and painted to represent the lightbulb.

 

[Crimea_River]

Really nice Geo.

 

[fubar57]

Thanks Andy. Six more pieces to attach and done

 

[Wurger]

 

[fubar57]

Wings are done, 5 pieces to go. This is becoming awkward to move so hopefully it will remain only 5 pieces to go

 

[Crimea_River]

Hope it doesn't become more than 5.
