Thanks Vic.
And here we have more detail. The tailwheel bay gets a nice detailed insert on both sides that includes a roof, ribs, and beam with lightening holes together with the attached door. The instructions say to glue one side to the fuselage wall, then glue the other side on to form a box before adding the other fuselage half. I decided to add both sides to the fuselage walls and paint them first, after first checking that there won't be any fit issues, which there aren't.
The details were then painted Zinc Chromate, which looks a lot darker in the photo than in reality. For this I used Tamiya XF-4 Yellow Green.
The main gear wells are a work of art. I painted the main spar the same chromate colour and temporarily taped it to the well "roof" after first gluing on the nicely-detailed front face.
Each separate rib was then glued to the "roof', using the grooves in the spar as locating guides.
Once the glue set, I removed the spar and painted the remaining details with Alclad II Airframe Aluminum (beautiful stuff BTW) and then permanently attached the spar. This way I didn't have to mask anything.
The tape is holding the spar ends in place while the glue sets.
I'm really enjoying this kit and highly recommend getting one if you like detail and beautifully fitting parts. More tomorrow hopefully.
