The cockpit details look great in place. Getting the fuselage closed up is a major step forward. Well done Alexis!

Thanks Rick ,

I'm glad that I didn't really add much detail to the pit ...most of it won't be seen . Engine is another matter !

Outstanding work on the interior, Alexis! Love the seat belts! I have this one in my stash and I'll be using yours as a guide. No pressure.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks Bud ,

Not sure if this would be a good build for that , but I will try my best on making it worthwhile .

Seems have been sanded and before I whip out the fillers the lower wings need to be glued in place , all this seems need to be filled . The engine is test fitted and detail on that hasn't start yet . My excuse is ....beautiful weather ! But it seems to fit well and I know how much room I have for space . While still try and figure out where in the hell I'm going to display this when built !

Good progress Alexis, yes lovely weather should be made the most of. We're finally enjoying some sunshine here in England.

I'm sure you'll find space for this once it's completed. I'm contemplating going all the way up to 1/24 for my next project. I may have to trash some of my really rough old models (that's most of them!)to make space.

Thanks Richie ,

Yes , always nice when the weather cooperates and one can get out doors in the sunshine ! Be doing the same today

1/24 is a good size and should make a nice project for the bench . I did that a few months ago , got rid of the lesser quality builds to have more room . That didn't last long . Going to have to get more shelving !!!

Looking Terrific Alexis! You are moving right along on this one in spite of your outdoor activities!

Great work so far, Alexis -

Yes, it can be hard to do modelling when the weather is good - it's actually pretty decent in the UK (surprisingly!) at the moment - I've stalled on a build for same reason!

I hope you manage to work out where to display when built ..........!

Regards

Dave

Getting to this stage is real progress, Alexis! And lovely work too. This is an impressive project. Regards, Marc

Dave , get out and enjoy the weather , never know when it will turn for the worst . I will make room for it somewhere

Thanks Marc

With it being to hot out side and to warm in the hobby room not much was done but thats okay . The floats seems are filled and the fuselage as well and I made a start on the engine details .
