bomb bay and wing spars

cockpit parts, seats need to be added along with the instrument panel

Just my kind of kit, not to many tiny details to get bogged down with.

Thanks everyone

thanks guys.

so a couple of pics of my progress to date, my apologies for the crappy pictures, the green is not as dark as it seems in the shots.
the bomb bay is not painted and all parts are not fitted as the doors will be closed so it wont be seen

fuselage together

Pal, your pics aren't that crappy you believe. I wish everybody could post such images here.

You hung your 4 year old son?

For FOUR MONTHS! Then he hit him with a flak pillow and didn't give him a parachute...

Coming along nicely.

so after fitting the cockpit before noticing i failed to fit the nose gear leg, i then noticed i had installed the twin fins upside down !
fortunately they both were removed without damage and were then fitted correctly

wings and tails on

engines built up ready to be attached
