Do 335 1/48 Monogram

Post by LyleW »

Okie dokie....
this is the subject. Came from ebay, and is quite old.

Not much to it, and i'll be closing it up as well.

Image

Turns out the kit was missing the wing bottom...Revell was quick to send a replacement.

Image

The pilot was wearing a new top-secret pressure suit. Don't know if all the bugs are out, though...

Image

Got some primer on and test fitted wheels and props

And that is where we are this morning.

Good to see this one back online Lyle. And the progress that you are making

Ya bum! Rub it in while I'm at work ;) but be careful, masking tape, sharp blades, and liquor can make for unexpected results...

Thank you kind sirs! Sharky, I, sometimes wish I drank as much as I joke about! Except I don't look good in orange suits.

Really a quite easy build, but I am taking my time with what time I have.
