Thanks again fellas for your replioes I am always honered, here is the build update for the night more tomorrow., looking like a B-29 a big one at that......... Okay fellas for the update i have completed the fuselage and the tail feathers, The rudder and stabilizers are built up useing a spar and ribs instead of the boxed spar and rib type often used i9n cardmodels alike............ on the tips of the rudder and stabilizers I had to build in a cardboard doubler to take up space and keep the rudder and stabilizer tips from flattaning out and looking out of perspective. with the doubler it filled the bill thewre no fit problems of the skins and other parts to this build very easy to construct and to big to handel..... I also added the aluminum paneling to the rudder and stabilizers. Tomorrow the wings will be added taking pictures of this big brute requires standing room only to take a picture with the finished results coming up in a couple good days from now will show the size of this Behemouth.. Here is the update build report for the night.

Thanks Paul and the rest of you great fellows for the replies update for the night is the comopleteion of the wings assemblies. The wings are put together useing the skins a four ribs and four spars i added a couple wingtip doublers to fill in the wingtips they looked awfull flimsy so i beefed them a notch............. at this point of the build I have no ran into any fit problems a good kit to say the least, I added the aluminum panels to both wings top and bottom its better to add them before glueing on the wings it will make life a little harder that way.......Next will be the four engine nacelles assemblies once they are done its the downhill slide of being finished Okay Paul I got the wings on now the engines.
