THIS IS BIGGGG!! Looking great Trey, some very nice work going into this mate. Just pull my chair up for the rest of this build.

Have fun, John

Ole,John thanks!

This is a productive day in the build as the sub assemblies start to fall in place! The major components are installed and once the tail gunner area is squared away I can button this bad boy up!!!

[Ian M]

Cool there is a Hugh pile of patience in that !

Almost a shame to hide it all away.

Hi Trey,

I'm with Ole, is there anyway you could get some clear side's made, or even have a cut away side, it would be a huge shame to hide everything after all the work and details you have done...

Ditto, all that patience and work sealed away for good!

I'm sure with your skills you could make it so it could be dismantled to view.

Pure quality Trey, this is going to be something special!

Interior detail is exceptional and I'm sure whatever you choose to do the finished model will be superb.

Cheers

Thanks Fellas reailly is motivating to get all the positive input! I really wish there was a way to make the interior more visible without compromising the exterior , this just is'nt in the cards for the time given and budget allowed for this build. We did decide to put some fibre optic lighting inside to at least give a chance for some of the detail to still be seen once its buttoned up. Hope it pays off ,if not we still have before pics right? I've gotten the nav desk and seat in place,used the kit part for the desk top and cut it down to size.. Will start on the tail gun position next.

You should get some of these pics printed for your friend Trey. Then, when he shows this off to his friends, he'll be able to show them just how much work a build of this quality involves.

Fantastic work Trey. I like Dave's idea. A sort of souvenir booklet of the build.
