It's time chaps ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . This kit from Gas Patch has been grinning at me for a while now, so I thought I'd start it ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49283100566_991f100c39_c.jpg) Commencing cutting and gluing shortly ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Guy, Boots, cheers and welcome chaps ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . This bird is not one for the faint hearted ![O_o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/browraise.png) , not moaning about fit issues, just ferckin little tiny PE parts ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . I have started, as you can guess and I'm still on the first two steps of the instructions. I just keep jumping around trying to get that what I can in place before priming and adding the cockpit colour. The plastic parts are also very small but not as fragile as a Mini-Art kit are, which is good. Anyway here's the first pics for yaz, the PE harness may need a little touch up, we'll see after it's had a dark wash or if the wash will suffice ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . The first 17 parts. ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49288537701_a1398677f1_c.jpg) The next 8 parts ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49288538166_0b4866fb7b_c.jpg) The PE harness. After seeing this close I have decided to strip it and re-paint ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) . ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49288749912_8b9c540e00_c.jpg)

Paul, beautiful interior work there. These Spanish Civil War birds have great camo schemes so I will definitely be looking forward to this one.
Regards,
Ian

Chaps, whilst other things are drying orfe ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) , I thought I would revive this one ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . I did some more work on the cockpit interior, which includes some very fiddly PE and little plastic bits ![8D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/insane.png) . I reckon that I can get some primer on the interior tomorrow morning and maybe a tad colour in the afternoon ![(:))](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/ninja.png) . ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49630656553_803af21730_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49631446832_f809cf1371_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49631178376_1e30fb4b75_c.jpg)
