Ok,Now for a few pics.....Elevators made up.... The2 small pieces of PE are the attachments so that they can be posed.There is a thin steel rod in between the two halves. Lower wing,with u/c wells fitted...and a detail shot of one of the bays Next ..a coupla pics showing the sublime fit... a very small gap in the last piccy,just didn't tape it tight enough! And as everyone does...a dry fit of all components thus far... Hope you likee!!!! ;D

Chris,and Ross,cheers guys....... ...another quick update... Assembled the office,and dry fitted for the piccies....again the fit is superb,and very little clean up! I haven't gone to the trouble of drilling the two bulkheads behind the pilot,like Gary Radford did on his build Next step,is to prime and paint....ACW,as usual....

Ok,chaps....a quick update,if I may...Over the weekend,I managed to prime a few parts,and then today I got some colour on them. The fuselage interior is Tammy AS12 Bare Metal Silver,and AS 29 Grey/Green,as is the floor of the office,between the wings. Office and engine frame,again in AS29 and finally the engine is now the right? colour as well...(Tammy Semi Gloss black) The AS29 is a tad light for the cockpit colour,but that should darken out with a Flory wash. As usual ACW ;D ;D
