Thanks for the feedback folks, very much appreciated!
Well, Gents, I finally have another update!
I took a look at the undercarriage as supplied by Messrs Revell and HR (Puffinstuff?) The Pup's is useable, although I'll make another spreader bar and axle. The Tripe's however, is not
The Tripe's is the lower pair shown below, after I had already attempted to modify one of the kit legs to see if it could be made to work....
Unfortunately, the legs are too long and the angle between them is wrong. Apart from that, they're not too bad...
So I made another pair using my usual method of brass rod and plastic strip. Here is the new pair, along with the old, plus the kit spreader bar and replacement...
Somewhat of an improvement I think!
After faffing around with those for a while I decided to finish off the tidy up of the upper wings following the rigging. They have now been painted and I hope to get a gloss coat on them tomorrow
While I had the airbrush going I also cleaned up the wheels and gave them another coat of colour.
Should be all downhill from here.....
Thanks for looking in!
Ian
