Damn, been finding I'm missing parts. Well two of the seat backs broke during waiting periods. I had to make new ones. and one of the engine necell was missing the upper support bar, I'm having to fabricate that as well. I also got the Verticals on and the bomb load in.

Overall I think the cockpit is cleaning up well.

though a little cramped for the full crew, Oh that my P-47N Revell, sorry!

A Do47 DonnerBolt Jugpencil.

say that again...?

 

[T Bolt]

Can't trick me into thinking a P-47 cockpit is a Do-17 cockpit!

 

[Crimea_River]

Almost the same size though!

 

[Gnomey]

Nice work so far!

 

[Donivanp]

Well, I don't like the looks of the coloring for these aircraft. I used Testors acrylic RLM 70 and 71 but I don't think it is right.

See my reply in your Heinkel build Don.
I had a similar problem with Model Master enamels, and ended up mixing my own RLM 70 and 71.

 

[Gnomey]

Lovely work so far!

OK so I used this 3M Post It tape for my splinter pattern. Don't remember where or when I got it but for this it works great. It has the tack of a Post It note and it wide enough to cover overspray well.

It tacks on and pills off right away. I did the rt wing and upper fuselage first.

Then the tail and Lft wing.

Nice

Looks like handy stuff.

Thanks guys. It's quick and easy, reuse until tack it gone. It's goof for the splinter but I don't know how well it would work for other things.

Seems like handy stuff. haven't seen it in the UK, but I'll look out for it, especially as I have two more He-111s, two Do-17s, two Ju-88s and a couple of other large splinter schemes to do yet !
