Got the gear done today...

You can see the kit oleos around wire and the initial sandwiched wheels before carving.

Then...the kit hubs...kind of boring so I scratched some parts to give them a 3D look. Not perfect, but better.

Finally, after painting, washing and dry brushing. I needed to paint the struts and hubs since the shots I have of the real plane show these parts to be a light green rather than grey. We'll see how this all looks when it's actually attached to the model!

Now, I'll finally start on the plane itself. Cockpit next with a considerable amount of scratch building as the kit parts seem to not be too accurate. We'll see how this goes!

Thanks for looking,

Dan
