Thanks Don and Mike, not working very fast on this one, but the smaller bits won’t really change the overall appearance so can enjoy having a Duck in 1/33 on the desk

Some work yesterday, added the scoops and intakes around the front, the exhaust parts, actually used the previously made ones, but shaped them and painted. I redid the forward panel of the canopy and is back on now. Approaching the goal line now, but still to add the floats, although ready to go on, and some work at the tail end on the gear doors and rudder struts, ect, then little things to add and will be done....

Thanks Don buddy, this one really has been cool to build, the kit may be far from buildable as printed but the parts have been very useful as a guide for size and scale and I used the floats straight from the kit but made my own formers. The rigging may be a bit under scale at least for the streamlined wing ones, but end on looks about right, might thicken them up with paint still thinking about that.
Happy Veterans Day by the way Don and any of those that may be reading this
Thanks to you all...

Thanks for the Veterans' Day greeting, Glen. Lil and I participated in a commemoration at the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center https://www.armywarcollege.edu/news/article/1308

Here's the final stage of this one, have been spending some time on little bits that I thought should be included, probably I forgot something, but this is pretty much the final reveal on this one thanks everyone for your support and interest

few more pics some better than others, lighting not the best and shadows of the rigging is confusing ...
