So much for a fast Builder............... not!! I finally found time for a few sessions on this one, the markings are all on, the top decking installed, and the guns and Aldis Sight are also on the model. The landing gear strut assembly is done except for the rigging and it is shown "posed" in these photos. I've kept wear, chipping, and oil etc to a minimum however once the different less glossy overcoats are done I may do a bit more, particularly more engine oil along the underside.
The engine oil is from AK Interactive, their oil based one.
I added a bit of chipping to the side panels and ring cowling using the AK "Worn Effects" Acrylic product.
The eyelets are all installed for the rigging so the next step is to install the struts and upper wing. Once that's rigged the landing gear and bracing will follow.No news to anyone familiar with the Wingnut Wings Products but the tolerances on this one are really tight; a coat of paint on joining surfaces causes all sorts of problems!
Cheers,
