Useful link, but I would be even more useful if I'd know the actual diameter of the propeller... I asked in the forum, but as it was more than a week w/o replies I removed the post, but dun worry, I already got my answer, but I used plastic instead of wood, I'll use wood in case I build a 1/48 or 1/32. Very good job indeed, I hope mine comes out as yours. Best regards.

José.

Work has kept me busy for a while, and I upgraded my phone and forgot my inbuild pics were on there. Anyway its 99% finished now, one or two touchups and I have to fit the wheels.

Hello Yorki:

Your prop turned out nicely; in fact, the whole model turned out pretty neat considering from what you started out with.  Neat scheme as well.

Best

Nice work on this very old and outdated kit! Looks good!

Yorki,

Well done with this old kit. I did it up decades ago, and still have it. Yours, however, is the better of the two by a fair margin: congratulations!  :D
Cheers!
