   Incredibly "clean" Guy, and a fine testament to your skills. Nicely done and I'll be following you on this one.

Great work on the wood effects and instrument panel, Guy.  Your build
is coming along beautifully.

Cheers,

Thank you again  ;)

Just a quick one before I put the two halves together. I think it's going to be a shame that, once finished, they'll be very little to view - the pilot's seat sits under the top wing..

Guy, are you sure that this is not an advance kit from WNW?! ;)  Your cockpit work is truly exceptional, and looks superb for 1/32 scale, let alone 1/48!  Very well done.  ;D  Can't wait to see this one come the rest of the way together under your skilled hands!

Regards,

Bob

Hi,

Last interior shots I promise!  :D

Once again, the fit of everything is perfect, everything just falls into place  ;)

Although, I spent ages making the tubular frame at the rear holding the spare ammo magazines using Albion alloys tubing (as I broke the kit part  :P) and once the top decking goes on, it can't be seen!  ???








Wings up next!  :D

Hi Guy, marvellous! I think Gaspatch made a wonderful kit, but of course you did the rest and what a clean build it is. It is going to be a real masterpiece.

Kind regards

Very appealing. Immaculate build, Gisbod.
And although I will not be building this one (the scale is just wrong for me) I may be tempted to get and build one, which is 1.5 times bigger. ;)

Absolutely stunning modelling job. All this, including the photography, looks near to perfection. It's only a pity that so much of that beautiful interior will be hidden from the viewer in the end...


Congrats to gaspatch on such a model.

Outstanding work on the cockpit, Guy!  You're making a silk purse out of the finest silk.  Costas is a genius.  The engineering of this kit is brilliant.  I especially love the cabane structure.  Should make wing alignment a breeze.  Can't wait to start on mine.
Cheers,
Bud
