Pic #1&2 are the seats with the PE added to dress them some details the little box goes on the back of the Pilots seat and it looks like maybe a tool box?it gets leather PE handles later,


Pics 3&4 are the metal chutes for the ammo feed to waist 50's nothing fancy just two pieces of styrene glued to together giving that middle seam I wanted that.



Pics 5,6&7 is the IP scraped down getting ready big improvement with the PE rudders and 6&7 show the throttle quadrant under construction as well as the IP .I still have to add PE to the floor in the silver section and finish the IP and Quad then we go to the walls a few bits there.I am thinking of using HGW belts anyone ever used them before?I usually Radu belts I used my last set for the P-51.

Good stuff Kevin.
I've used the HGW micro-fabric belts a couple of times, and they're very good. A bit fiddly to assemble, with all the buckles and adjusters, but then my arthritic hands don't help !
Just follow the instructions, and scrunch them up when assembled, and they'll drape very realistically.

Beauty Kevin. No experience with those belts I'm afraid.

I ordered them this evening Terry watched a youtube video said yep that's the trick also ordered replacement props from AMS. Kevin

It's been a slow and cumbersome week lost a couple of days work in the office when I lost all power to the S.Wall I am not an electrician by no means but when I built the shop I wired it except the fuse panel.I was kind of suspicious when the neutral had 125V read up in some forums and figured I lost a line nut on the neutral and found it took two days.The pit is getting close waiting on some HGW belts from the land of Aussie and some new props so only have to dress out the co-pilots side of things and the belts and the office is finished.The bomb bay will be up next in the line of things.

I see the self adhesive on the copilots side has come loose again GLUE this time!!

Thks Guys it's been alot of fun HGW belts came in today and props yesterday. Kevin

 

[javlin]

The bomb bay was the easiest part of the build thus far the yellow stripes are not totally straight but I do not think they always were in real life.As you can see in the background the HGW belts came in today and the props yesterday.
