Great work, Daniel! Looking forward to seeing those kiwi roundels on her!

No worries about the colours too! Sorry I didn't get them to you earlier, got caught up in my own things and didn't notice the deadline approaching...

 

[109ROAMING]

Cheers mate! no worries - got it done even if it was the most frustrating day I've ever lived

Will take better pics tomorrow

 

[Wayne Little]

Yep Great work Danie, looking good, finish line in sight!l

 

[109ROAMING]

Cheers mate! few things to touch up - finished shots should be up tomorrow

 

[lesofprimus]

Excellent Daniel, she looks good....

I take it the antenna mast broke off and had to be repaired??? I would recommend putting some dark/black around and in the gun ports instead of the white thats there now...

 

[Heinz]

Wow Daniel thats really come along mate!

 

[109ROAMING]

Thanks Alex and Dan!

It broke a couple times , then the antenna at the front came lose and stayed that way despite using alot of glue around it - first time I've put antenna wires on a model .Think I've learn't abit

Will get the gun ports weathered up ( was one of those things I gotta touch up )

Got some nice blue skys today , so will be out soon taking final shots after these touch ups done

Heres some more photos of the build -last one is of its new home although I just put the B-26 there for a size comparison
