really, you're too kind...
in spite of the friend to whom I am building this kit has asked me to do it out of the box, I can not leave everything as it is, quite simply.
I needed the precise dimensions of lewis to close the fuselage, so I could not do anything but replace the original one with one of tom's modelworks:
8270
after cooking on the fire the cooling jacket I rolled up on a drill bit, and prepared for some welding. quite easy.
8233
as a barrel, and reference to assemble straight all the parts (21, at the end) I used a needle from external 0.5:
8230
and here we are, now I have all dimensions I need to close the cowling top.
8251
the conveyor belt is straight from the box... apart from that you see its quality, I wonder from where the belt came out!
8252
8254
if the belt has no positive location, from under the gun comes out a pipe that flows here ... but what's the use?!?
8256
and now, before falling in love with the object in natural brass, a nice coat of primer...
8269
ok, there is something to touch up, but already it is better than the one from the box, I would say, even if it lacks the longitudinal ribs...
8267
and here the objective of the session, close the front part of the fuselage .. really small, uh??
8278
bye bye, p.
