Hopefully I can wrap this one up in less time it took for the 109 (3 years). I'm sure lot's of people remember this little gem. Now to see what I can make of it !

Haven't seen that kit since the late 1960s - look forward to seeing the build.

Had some time today and started roughing in the gun bay.

Merry Christmas as well !!!

Mini Guns !!! Scratched up a pair for one side. On another note...figured out how to take better close up shots with the digital camera ( knock knock use a tripod bonehead )
I'm getting back into this !

 

[vikingBerserker]

Nice job on the guns!

 

[Wayne Little]

[Airframes]

I agree, they look the part. Nice work.

 

[T Bolt]

Wow! Nice work.

 

[Bustedwing]

Ok one side is done. Kind of scares me how much I now rely on those cheap reading glasses to do this !!!

Excellent! How did you make the curved chute?

[Bustedwing]

The chutes are a piece of sprue. I shaved one side flat, flipped it over and shaved the other side flat until it was the thickness I was looking for. Then I held it over a candle to soften it up and bent it to shape. I did the final shaping with a jewelers file and some dental picks.
