Coming along very nicely Ian.

Thanks Gary, still an awful lot of work to do though.

Bit late , sorry Ian.
When I saw the box I thought Mrs Ron had been practicing, and had chucked it at 570 !

Some nice painting of the internals. A golden oldie.

Been lurking in the back enjoying the Tunnocks and the build until I had to chyme in wondering for a while why you had little flip flop slippers on your work table besides the little Volkwagens They're cute holders and clips.

Cheers,
Wabble

 

[papa 695]

Still working on this.

 

[papa 695]

I’ve got the main body primed.

 

[Si Benson]

Nice work Ian

Bet that was one heck of a paint session

Looking good Ian

 

[papa 695]

It’s big.

 

[flyjoe180]

You're going to need a bigger shelf Ian

 

[papa 695]

Started black baseing, but had to stop the compressor was getting a little warm.

 

[scottie3158]

Ian,
This is a great build with some top modelling going on.

 

[Steven000]

Nice progress Ian!
Looking good

 

[papa 695]

Finished the black baseing, and painted the underside.

 

[Andy T]

I'm playing catch-up but that's quite a size! Some great work going on and a lovely drop of paint.

 

[papa 695]

Got all the camo painted.

 

[Jim R]

Missed a fair bit Ian but just had a good catch-up. You're making a fine job of this kit. I doubt it could be bettered without a load of aftermarket stuff. The paint job is progressing really well.

I see the RAF Regiment is already guarding the plane with their Scorpion

The B-17 is looking good, I didn’t realise you were going to paint it as RAF Coastal Command.
