Ahoy fellas
Here is the last update for the day more tomorrow, as of the update build report I completed the top fuselage roof structure by adding lights and ventilation screens which completes the fuselage unit. Next assemblie is the wings and stabilizers starting with the rings i noriced the left wing panel had a slight warp in it it was an eye sore must be the way the model was shiped wshen all of the bagged sprues were cramed together. I took the the uppper and lower left wing sections to the kitchen sink and ran hot water on it for a couple minutes and removed the warp out thank god no memory of the warp returning. Useinn Acc glue I cenented all four wing sections and the sytabilizers and set asicde to dry when dry I Fillied in sparingly the leading edge of the wings and the nacelle sides they were the only places that need filling I dry fitted the wings to the fuselage to check for acuracy of mateing against the fuselage. The results the fit is more then excellent perfect surpriseingtly no filler is needed another plus bonus to the kit again thank you Revell. Tomorrow i will wet sand the wings down and cemnt same to the fuselage along with the stabilizers. and give them a couple good coats of gray primer.

thank you Wojtek for your always wonderfull replies, Here is the update for the day not much I been doinf a lot of honey do list for my old woman you got to keep mama happy or she will take your glue away. going on the down hill slid now as to the update assemblies I constructed all three engines all the three engine3s consist of 8 peices each, Ther engine cylinders were airbrushed with silver and let dry over night and the next day when dry to touch useing a black wash go back over the engine cylinders to high light them or you can just paint the cylinders flat black and dry brush silver over them what ever works best., thye exaust pipes were painted burnt copper to mke the burnt copper just mix flat black and copper. or use red oxide and dry brush flat black. The under carrie consist of 8 peices four pieces for each undercarriage assemblie. Useing filler I filled in the seams to the two outboard engine cowlings and the two spats for the undercarriage. Once I wet sand the seams I will prime the cowlings and landing gear then the real fun will begin. Pianting of the model. If the good lord is willing I will start the paint schedule process tomorrow. Here are the update pix for the night.

Looking good Boats, but what book/paper are you assembling the engines on that has plane stats in German written on it? Revell's German instruction sheet?
