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

Will take better pics tomorrow

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...
Click to expand...

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
 
Pretty much done - may add some weathering down the line

B-17 its nearly 4 pm over here - may see if I can do some evening shots later on

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
