Ahoy fellas

thanks you so much Phil and gradson Peter for your replies and the you tubve presentation and the walk around I need that walk around to add more detail to the model. I am going to add aluminum panels to the build useing kitchen foil this will enhance the model very much...... On the following pictures I added the rear former bulkhead that attaches the rear presure bulkhead.. Tomorrow I will add some paneling and completed the bomb bay intereir.. this thing is going to be huge My Ruthie wants it to hang in out living room. As to the fit of parts excellent no issues as of yet my only beef is the paper being used on the kit is almost the same as Alen Rose DC-3 flimsy on the wings i will add more cardstock to beef them up so it will avoid any wrinkeling.. Here are the update for the night.

Outstanding. You must have a wonderful wife to want your hobbies hanging in the living room. I'm sure this will be worthy of the honor.

Thanks grandson Peter snd the rest of you fellas I am honored. Okay for the build report for the day I have the bomb bay done not very many parts to the bomb bay compartment GPM gives you only one bomb bay that suppose to house the Fat Boy Atomic bomb the other is in closed position later in the build I will add more detail to the bomb bay compartment. I added some panels to the kit to give it a two tone aluminum finish effective I will be adding thesdev panels as the build proceeds....... No fit issues a good kit I just cutted out the two rear fuselage skin No.8 and 9 and thier formers I will assemble these tomorrow and complete the fuselage assembly here the build report for the day.

The Aluminium panels are excellent Skipper, the BB doors and access tube are fantastic - i say this so often... but you really are THE man !
