Man, what a beaut!

Go back a page Dave and "Lil Margaret" has some color and "Boomerrang" has some now will post more in the following days once I get the L/G and canopies finished

 

[javlin]

Well "Boomerrang" is getting closer and the landing gear of "Lil Margaret" got assembled and a wash today.The Black stripes are decal black stock cut to fit I had "Boomerrang" done but the flaps started losing their paint as I was applying the wash because I did not apply a primer.So the decals came off and a primer and a recoat this evening.

Thanks Andy and Jan I never noticed that Jan

The instructions state it is still not known why the the "25" under the checkers on the tail?

 

[T Bolt]

Very nice Kevin

 

[Gnomey]

Lovely work so far!

 

[javlin]

"Lil Margaret" is up on her own legs now and engine is finally glued in."Boomerang" is getting ever closer and will be the first one to hit the finish line.The machine guns for the bay are almost little kits within themselves plan on having one on the wing like being replaced

Looking great Kevin.

 

[javlin]

Thanks Fellas these have been alot of fun and trying some new techniques

 

[javlin]

Getting ever closer.I have applied the final clear on both planes at this point and on "Lil Margaret" the canopies are still not glued in nor is the antenna.I still have inner gear doors to attach to Lil Margaret as well as the exhaust stacks.I think it is visible enough in the pic the placard for the gun bay which for me if you open this up something needs to be on that door,anything.I also pick up another Tamy stang the other day to add to the Recce collection that will give me atleast four if not five if I do the Revell kit which has some terrible legs.Pics....

Oh by the way the next stang has yellow checkered nose with blue checkered tail

 

[Crimea_River]

They look great Kevin. I have decals for Lil Margaret as well and have wondered what those markings on the port wing are for. Any idea?
