SPA Modeler

Yes, yellow stripes are stretched sprues to help visibility during glue session. In the front section I put the horizontal structures first, then I cut a space to place vertical ones . lots again to glue

Alternate the build with the gigant last two days worked on the seeadler:

Almost filled the fuselages of structure, afternoon pictures, at night i finished all surfaces with horizontal structures , left only few verticals to add actually







Glued also nose gondola (nothing like the condor gondola but nice this one too) with modified guns housing to allow free paint session and also removed inner pins after gluing. Glued the tail turret too with tamiya green cap




Important counter rivet notice if someone want to build this A5 kit:

The instructions means about the option in the rear side fuselage to choose about MG131 and MG151... totally ignored the side MG151 because these 20mm guns was avaible only on the following version as A7 and A8 (dunno about spy version A9) and don't remove the large backward windows before cargo ramp.
I did the mistake to not read references before choose the 151 option .. then i'll keep the wrong larger windows /machine guns


At the next!

Updates during last days:

Finished to fill structures in the fuselage. Added covers to ceiling intakes

















A weird test fitting



A teaser of oob details on the cockpit






Cut the front section of ceiling to display opened ,glued the rest to right fuselage and added a conduct through the cargo area and plugged to covered air intakesintakes



In the tail added the rear gear well



Also added a floor to the tail gunner



At the next

More remarkable work! Man, I probably would already be at the paint stage by now, but then I don't add all this magnificent detail to mine. I make such toys compared to this....

Thank you Duke , I'm actually in paint stage by two days
The two German giants on the interiors with acrylics in the kitchen



And the other in the bunker with enamels



Asap will update all the wips

That thing is HUGE.

Very nice! I just finished decaling a couple models. I hope to have pics up soon.

brought a new shelve that contain almost two beasts... but not yet fixed at the wall

Nice! I have shelves like that spreading from wall to wall along two sides of my Hobby Room from two feet above the floor and reaching to the ceiling. I still am out of room though.

The big planes I have like that are all hanging from the ceiling..... all 60+ of them.
