Takes guts to hack apart a kit...on purpose. This is going to be good!

Will be following this one. I do like HPH kits but would not have the guts for this one.

Some more AM that means hacking into plastic. Not all the resin will be used apart from the fact I am only doing half an aircraft. The fuel fillers can be used but the life raft did not have an external access on the early 111P:

The wing fuel tanks require removal of some substantial lower wing area. The bomb bay structure has been marked for removal as per the HPH/Eduard requirements:

The engine nacelle has been completed and the QB Resin exhausts cut from their moulding blocks and test fitted:

Finally the seams on the fuselage to inner wing join are quite good:

I may have made a rod for my back in not installing the tanks and filler prior to joining the wing fuselage but we shall see.

So excited to see where you are going... the QB exhausts are a major improvement!
