Thanks, chaps.
We're on the home straight now. Boom fitted and the majority of the rigging is done and the V-strut landing gear is in place.
The 230lb. bomb.
The one at the top is the Airfix bomb as it comes. The lower one is after modification of the tail, the removal of the moulded bomb release and the body has been extended. To extend it I cut it in half with a razor saw and glued the halves to a length of an old paint brush that had also been cut with a razor saw.
Armament.
The MkII Lewis is from Mini World. This is the most fiddly thing I've ever modelled! Fitting the gunsight was nothing compared to folding over the strap for the ammunition drum. The tips of even my finest tweezers are huge in comparison. I had to take this photo just so I could see the damn thing as I can't see this much detail with the naked eye.
