1/72 AZ D4Y2 Judy

Post by Fermis »

Thus far...not too bad. There's an OK amount of pit detail...but a little more helps!
Added seat frame, rudder bar/pedals, throttle, some levers and other do-dads.

Seat belts and IP are PE, included w/ kit.

IP looks like it's riding a bit high but looks like it does a bit on real thing as well...maybe not as much but some...

Nice work on the cockpit Fermis. But the fit on the fuselage halves does not look that good, is that just the picture or is it the same in real life?

Could be, but you never know with these short run kits.

Beautiful work on that cockpit! I built a Judy a few decades ago. I was too young to know about adding details like this and furthermore, I didn't have the references. Yours is a tremendous job!

Good start on this Judy! I like your nicely detailed cockpit!
To bad no manufacturer so far has done this aircraft in 1/32 scale... Such a good looking beauty!
