Stellar finishes you show us Ian! The fading makes it a lot more interesting, the engine nacelles fit just perfect.

Thanks for stopping in, gents! One last detail before I add the canopy glass; I added a clipboard and a map to the instrument panel deck. I will get the glass added today, add a pitot tube and wrap her up. (Trumpeter forgot the pitot tube, of course).

The KA-3B is finally complete. The canopy glass was installed and the nav lights and beacons were painted last. The plane depicted is a KA-3B from "The Vikings" of VAH-10, "Heavy-10" from Carrier Air Wing Eight off the USS Shangri-la during their Vietnam cruise. At least I beat the Nimrod timeline. More pictures in the gallery and thanks for dropping in.

Brilliant job! I'm building the ancient Renwal USS Shangri-La, so this has me motivated to get going on it more....provided all the parts are there. I doubt it but won't know until I get going again....
