Look at these photos of the wings tops. The lighter color is blueish on the right and center and gray on the left

But I think it must be my printer that is screwing up. The only variable is that all the wings are printed on the same sheet.


No worries.

Oh.. i see it now in the first picture. It does seem off-color.
I share your suspicion. It could be a printer ink issue.
On the diagram, the first wing is on the top portion of the paper while the second wing is under it.

Pilot side fuselage

Here is one side. I decided to build it as is with the landing gear bays. My original intent was no interiors, but it is too difficult with this model.



So here it is partially

Fuselage continued

The landing gear bays here

Will be inserted and then the whole thing fitted to the wing. That will be later when I finish the other fuselage.

Attached one fuselage

I decided to attached the left fuselage.

First glue the landing gear bay and then dry fit to the wing and engine side.

Next is the other fuselage and then add the canopy.

Eric

Color issue appears to be a one off event. I am home again and reprinted the same page on the same printer and everything is fine with the wing color.

Not sure what happened , but at this point, the built model will continue as is. So the file is correct.


If I decide to built this model again, I would upscale it to 1/33 and have a clear canopy and a cockpit.



Thanks


Isaac

Hi Isaac,

Great to see how the model is coming along.
I hope the wheel wells didn't give you a lot of headaches.

Actually the wells were OK. My preference at such a small scale was not to build them, but it was easier not to change things.

I am home this week, so no building of the models for now.

Right side fuselage

Similar construction to the other twin fuselage. Only difference is that it house a nose gear bay.

I added a small piece of wood strip to support it.

Hi Isaac, the aircraft looks a bit like drone up so far, without any canopy yet .

Regards,
Erik
