Took Bruce and Johns advice for camera settings and played around with them a bit
Got the main airframe put together and all gaps I had in test fitting went away with the cockpit installed.

Not much putty is going to be needed on this just a few pin holes here and there as of now.
Thanks for looking in.

That looks great, now! Good work.

...and your patience shall be rewarded! By the way, there is a warbird airshow in Munci this summer. June/July, I think. I believe they will be in Lexington KY towards the end of June.

Hey—I was thinking for the future builds in 1/48, Eduard still makes PE seatbelts in its older way (pre "steel belts") and it's a real good deal. You get five different kinds of belts for 7 bucks.

I wish I had this level of fitment from the Pacific Coast Models kit, but beggars are not riding tonight, Clint. So my wishes are not horses. Or something like that. Nice photo!

Make more models!
