Thanks chaps and I'm glad to say the second wing came out okay (sorry Andy).
With the wings now at rest until fitting my attention is drawn to the engines one of which I hope to display open, lots of parts on these but we start by building the cylinder ring.
Possibly more to see tomorrow.

Thanks gents hinted, more engine pics today. These are the completed engine builds which will be mounted down the track. I'll also be adding a bit of oil, fuel and grease stains dusted off with lots of sand dust before mounting, I can smell the oil and grease already not to mention the high octane fuel.
Really nice Vic.

Thanks gents. Not a lot achieved today, had a couple of appointments that kept me out and about for much of the day.
Did however return to the main air-frame innards and added more scratch detail on the side wall in the bomb aimer position, cockpit and in the radar booth.

Thanks again gents for your interest.
Have been doing lots of little bits these last couple of days and now have most of the innards in place with the deck over the bomb bay dry fitted.
If your tuned in Andy as I know your with your Mum for her birthday, but how were you planning on attaching the wings. Would you be gluing that little block to the fuselage and clipping the wings on or trying it another way?
