      Right ...........so here we are again, much has happened since the last update. Broke the starboard wing off while trying to clamp the lid down on this miscreant! Up to that point I was getting on fairly well, with much detail painting out of the way and final assembly of the interior detail.....not much will actually be visible, but I like doing it anyway. So I put the wing back on and let it dry overnight and carried on today. carved up a pilot fig to fit in the nonexistent cockpit, but going with the thought that he would be visible, and the end result is a quick turn on a casualty pick up with engines turning, so someone needs to be in the seat. All painted up using the "Marlow Method" and quite pleased. Had to scratch a couple of roof antennas as the originals were, Big, Ugly and toy like. So all that is left is to finish painting on the canopy and antennas and hang the upper and lower cargo doors. Then on to decals.Click image for larger version

        It’s coming on a treat Rick :thumb2:

        The phrase “you are making a silk purse from sows ear” comes to mind.
