Great progress. ICM kits have the bomb attachments and rockets. I have those somewhere if you need them.

Cheers Greg

Thanks, i have those but the pylon looks very different.
Yesterday i found a couple of bomb racks from what i think were from an old Eduard kit.
I filed them to a rough shape that might work.

Thank you all.

Not much done on last days off.

Prop and spinner assembled and painted.



One of the pylons i have re shaped, i think once painted and fitted should look acceptable, based on the pic in this thread.
I cant find any better pictures or drawings.



MkI and Mk 24 props together !

great stuff, thank you Andy.

that confirms to me where they were fitted on the wing, i had suspected between the two cannons, though further forward than i guessed they would be !
