    2/3rds of the way through the belts. Not the best of fun, eyes are in need of a rest but I'm pleased with the result. Has taken several hours to do in short bursts. Still to complete the navigators/rear gunners backrest sling which has to be glued directly to the interior framework not looking forward to that one

        Very,very nice work Vaughan. The harnesses look great. Reminds me of the Stuka I built some time ago - both are 2 seaters and the belt spanning the fuselage is similar.
        Again, lovely work

              Thanks guys. This one's a bit of a slow build, I hope to get some more done this week.

                  Hi Vaughan
                  Just had a good catch-up. Firstly I hope any health issues you had are resolved. The build is stunning. The engine is a work of art. The cockpit looks superb as does the paintwork. I'm really impressed with your neat, well considered approach.
                  Jim

                    Jim health is all good, thanks for asking, saw my consultant last month and he's happy to see me in a years time. The build is slow for me but I think it's down to time constraints to be fair.

                      Finally the fuselage is together. Hopefully things will progress quicker now!!

                          Well here's a dry fit with the wings, main float and engine she's going to look impressive. Still lots to do, so I better pull my finger out and get on with it!!.

                            Hi Vaughan

                            Have to agree with Ross , I find the Vallejo metal colour difficult to get right , but your finish looks excellent .

                            I till take those tips also :thumb2:
