"She's got legs...." MLG installed and setting up. BMF for the oleos with the join to be hidden by the wheel covers. Brake lines installed. Prop and spinner installed. Rear wheel installed and is moveable to allow final positioning:













Thanks for looking.

Closing in on the finish! Wheels attached and angled. From the photos, the angle of the MLG looks too straight, it is better in real life but they probably could have been a bit better. At least they are equal in all the other axis:







Exhaust stains with a well diluted Tamiya Brown/NATO black mix:









The spring is from fine copper electrical wire wound about the smallest drill bit I had. Just the inner doors and some oil stains to go and it will be done:

splendidly done, Kent

Finish line crossed. These photos show the MLG angles a little better. Light oil and fuel stains, boarding ladder and MLG inner doors and supports. Into the cabinet and onto the next....




Thanks for following and the supportive comments. I do appreciate them all.
