Finished at last!!!

Well these are the best of the finished pics for my Maly Aviation entry. The kit went together somewhat OK. The cockpit fuselage fit was good, the fwd engine cowling rings needed some significant adjustment. The tail and rudder fit superb. The as printed cockpit details were very plain and cried out for detail. The wings were probably the worst problem with this kit. Somehow building the main spar into the fiselage was not a great idea, and the extension from root to tip of wing needs major re-engineering. As this was the only game in town for a Devastator, be prepared to work! I like the interwar naval aircraft, the buccaneers, buffalo, the F3Fs the vindicators, all cool, but sadly obsolete by WW2.
