Thanks, All! And Ronan...I'll do my best. So far only a few little issues that have been overcome. I'm also learning to cut on the outside of the former lines and the skins are fitting snug and allow room for changes. Anyway...
Here is a bit more on this beast. I finally started to add the skins and the last picture I'm proud of because there is a pretty small seam just in front of the "4" on the fuselage and with some burnishing, I think it will go away. Looks better than my PZL. Very pleased. More tonight! Dan |

Dan model looks great, but you glued the cavity of machine guns (27a) in opposite direction. The wider end should be closer to the cabin and should be terminated by these small blinds (27b) with imitation of guns (28).

Hi All,
A little more tonight. Kadlubek: I'm not sure what you mean as the wider part of the troughs is toward the cockpit. Maybe my picture isn't clear. I also still need to add some edging on the top of the guns. I did not put the little ends in the gun areas since I figured by the time my ham-fisted fingers put two gun tubes in there, you wouldn't notice those backers were missing! Here we are tonight. Everything is tight and straight so far and with a little dressing, I think all my seams will sort of disappear! I hope. Cheers, Dan |

Thanks, Folks. It's really coming together now!
I go the fin on albeit a little crudely... I'll work on the nose tonight and the stab as well! Cheers, Dan |

One last shot for Th night. I got the main tail structures all in place. While not "Ricardo-esque", I think they look fine and the fit was great. The only thing I didn't do was put a wire base into the struts. My wire fit well, but it seemed unnecessary so I left them out. Just made it easier for me to finish them off.
Nose starts tomorrow! Dan |

Started the nose with all its bits and bobs and bulges. I'm particularly proud of the exhaust as I was kind of dreading those. They went together really well in the end.
I left the right side until tomorrow. Next I'll add the cooler under the chin. Then I'm on course to begin the wings! Moving along nicely now. Cheers, Dan |
