Looks good Wayne. I am so done with Tamiya P-51s....oh wait...one in the mail. And then I am done with Tamiya P-51s

Looks great so far Wayne!

Thanks very much Guys.....

The Starboard upper wing now done too, but I'm not happy with the fit of the Gun Panels after sanding the sprue sections flush...may well fill them all and recribing a cleaner set of lines.....

I'm not very good at dealing with that kind of stuff. Looking forward to seeing how you pull it off.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Agree with Andy.

 

[Gnomey]

Great work so far Wayne!

Good job Wayne. I'm surprised a kit of this calibre has these kinds of fit issues. Is it a case of they designed it to have them open?

Filling the lines with Sprue and rescribing....better work out....

Thanks mate, better open than closed yes...I'm thinking 2 things....I did hastilly whack them in place to get it closed up and done.... and the other night while reviewing some wing pics I saw Why things didn't seem right...the main hatches are the wrong way around the latches are not supposed to be at the top...!! and as they are not perfectly square that doesnt help the alignment, so filling and rescribing to fix it....am I happy about my cockup....not really.

So have added the sprue fill to the port wing and going to do that first before the starboard side....in the mean time a have started splashing some paint in the Cockpit fuselage section......things have been going very slowly this past week as I have been rather busy....
