Stripped down Mosquito MK IV 1/32

You're sure, Andy?

When I look at this pic, it's just behind the canopy, halfway the wing.

Ok, the rendering confused as I thought your canopy was going further back. Carry on!

Nice work so far!

 

[BertUS]

Just a little note that this one is still alive, next to the tank I'm still drawing, although I'm more than drawing, but that's the fun behind it

So I'm working on getting the space behind the cockpit right, so that's not easy

Looks good and thanks for the update, nice to see your still kicking.

I love solids................. and to print 3D would be fan-tas-tic!

 

[BertUS]

Thanks

 

[Gnomey]

Looks good so far!

Put some parts together, had to rescale a lot, measuring work was apparently not correct in the base, but this picture gives me a bit of an impression of how it should be

As you can see, I still redraw things into the backside of the dinghy compartiment and winglocation

Just question for the Mossie specialist. Is the radio placed on the wing upperdeck or is this a built on deck?

 

[Gnomey]

Nice work so far!

Now that the monsoon is moving away in the Netherlands, it is time for outdoor activities, but during the rain.......

After a lot of redrawing because things are not correct, (gosh, hadn't I already written that a few times?) now finally reasonably correct, only the many details still do. Anyway, I now have the tanks, bomb rack and a bomb bracket (fuel tanks and bomb carrier) pretty good. The tanks are finally mounted slightly tilted

The bombcarrier, is a somewhat personal impression of what I saw in photos and on Brittmodeller.com in a topic by Andy, a Canadian who also helps with the restoration of a real Mossie and whose photos are a source of reference

Okay, first the pictures again

Things will change again because I find new information, but so far, it's going well

Just question for the Mossie specialist. Is the radio placed on the wing upperdeck or is this a built on deck?

Yes the deck behind the pilot's seat is actually the curved top surface of the wing and the radio mounts directly on top of it.

Nice drawings by the way.

 

[BertUS]

Thanks, so my drawing will be step by step accurater, nice, love it

 

[Gnomey]

Good work so far!

 

[BertUS]

A bit further now. Now have the bomb bay almost ready and have provided some rafters with some details. I'm just unsure about the bomb brackets

I've drawn 2 now

But not sure which one to use now with maybe a few minor tweaks

With some bombs underneath it shows a bit better

And a few pictures of the bulkheads details

For those who want to know how big it will be in real life
Then measure the entry hatch on the bottom drawing and measure it on the screen to a width of 2 cm, then approximately 1/1 as it should be

After a long time overthinging pro and contra, I decided not making this model moveable, when I try to make even the smallest details visible, I can't stand the poor details voor de moveable parts
