Amazing work on this beautiful plane! I would say that this is a Tamiya in 1/48th scale! Superb!


All the best!

Sorry for taking so long on the pix but I have been under the weather these last few days

Anyhow, Here we go

This build has been like working with a beautiful woman . It can be a love hate relationship at the same time

The kit is really nice in itself but does not lend itself well to modifications . The modular mold coupled with the fact that the bottom is wide open. It needs the wing for strength .
To add insult to injury the entire backbone is the canopy which stays off till much latter on .
This is basically like trying to do surgery to a fractured and empty egg shell . :pinch: We have had our moments :S

Smile for the camera . . .

I think it could probably use a bit more grime :hmmm

The PE went on relatively well but even with my added plumbing much is still missing .

So, here we have , finally done with this one.

Thanks for looking in and for all the very kind words

Cheers, Christian B)

It may shine like a diamond in a goats butt but there's no doubt about it being some mighty fine
model work buddy.
