Cheers guys. :smiling3:

I hope I can do it justice, I've never worked with PE in 1/72 so must confess to being a little nervous.

No pressure then !!

Bob,
This will be an impressive build.

[Mr Bowcat]

I bit the bullet and tackled the tub this evening. It actually wasn't too bad, but still took a couple of hours



And yes, that is a pot of Tamiya it's sitting on.

Look forward to seeing this build Bob, cockpit looks good so far. Great idea using the drone as a paint mule.

Looking good Bob. Have you seen the one at Duxford?

The picture I posted above was also taken at Duxford (before they built the US hall and moved it)

[Mr Bowcat]

Morning all. :smiling3:

Progress has been slow, working with PE in this scale has been challenging, as were the resin figures. This is where the build is so far.

[Jim R]

Hi Bob
Slow and challenging progress maybe but it looks good. The figures are very well done.
Jim

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Jim.
