Good evening, Keeping the mojo up by giving other things a go whilst waiting for inspiration on other projects, or paint drying. As with most things wingy, it all seems to start in the office. So a few pictures of progress to date.   Very pleased to get the decals in situ however, painting could have been better, but next up a coat of "Klear" and a wash to give it a worked in look. More as and when the fancy stikes and as ever ACW. Tim

Office completed. Had a few issues as I managed to use the wrong IP's and had to try and rescue 12 decals. Managed to remove and replace 9 in total but had to paint in 3 of the smaller decals myself. Hope you can't see which ones! (It's not a competition)   Some small slippage with some of the placement, but once buttoned up you will not see that much anyway. As ever ACW, and more as and when. Tim

Time for a little update with this. Pulled the office together and started the wings, rear fuselage etc and test fitted the lot together. All I can say is "FECK....... it's big!"    And a couple of the "office"
 Fit in general seems very good to this "aircraft novice" but a small gap above the IP needs my attention.
Slow and check, check and check again seems to be the way to go but it pays dividends in the end I hope. More as and when. Tim

I’m interested to see this come together as it’s so much cheaper than the Tamiya one. I bet it’s not 1/2 the kit!
