Pit is painted and weathered. I think I may do a bit more work on the seat belts and buckles, but it's now ready to start gluing and closing things up.






Thanks for looking...Dan

Thanks Isaac and Don!

Here are my first tentative beginnings on the forward fuselage. Not sure if I'm cutting my formers a tad small or...? But I am having some fun times conforming the skins around to look smooth. You can see a couple of burbles along the way. However...when I see "real" airplanes, they look like this so I'm not too upset! Here is what it looks like so far:




One thing is for sure...it's a BIG beast! It will dwarf your typical Bf-109.

I like it! More tomorrow...Dan

Thanks MrConk, Erik and YOAV!

Tonight I got the nose and extreme rear done and added the first of several extra parts...a chin radiator. Fit really nicely!



All for tonight!

Dan
