Slowly I have been making progress on this one . A little here a little there and I at the stage now where items can start being primed and ready for paint . Before I start that I still need to dip the canopy in future for masking .

Front rads are in place with their PE parts . Rear of the rads will get done after painting . Landing gear parts are ready as well . I didn't add the PE brake lines ...tried but it just wasn't worth the frustration in the end . Spinners and prop blades , landing gear doors which still need PE parts added . 5 hinged for each door . I put these on now and they will get lost into the great blue yonder only too be found 6 years later ! The turbo charges I drilled out the front scoops . I began some filling on the under side at the wing root junctions . The right under side was the worst which was filled with plastic rod sanded and then filled . Primer will tell how well i did on that !

Alexis,
It’s good to see you’re getting back in the swing of things and making some progress.
I can’t say the same thing about my builds. I always look forward to your progress reports.

I agree! Unfortunately with everything in Kevin's post... but then one can at least enjoy what others build.

Thank you so much guys  :)

I try to get bench time when other Activities are stale . Some days I just sit there and stare at it doing nothing to it at all , but yet I find it to be some what relaxing and calming .

Nice work!

I know the feeling, yesterday I tried to work on my 1/32 A-6 Intruder but all I managed was to glue the interour to  one fuselage half...
However, the hamster wheel inside my head was calming down after that feat and browsing through the instructions so I had a good night sleep afterwards -I suppose that's why it sometimes called a relaxing hobby, well, for me anyway.
