SPA Modeler

First time back on the bench in 2 days. I decided to build this one...

Bang seat and cockpit assembled

I've done a couple Hobby Boss kits and liked them. I have 6 more in the stash. French do like the canard birds.

I do like Hobby Boss kits too, I’ve done a couple already.

Good start! Is it done yet?

LOL….

Started painting the cockpit and bang seat. Assembled the missiles and belly/wing tanks, & tail rudder. Went to bed at 1:30am.

You’ve become MadDog, Midwest division! I went to bed around 9:30, but I was up around that time. Different reason, though…

Cockpit painting is ongoing. All is left is seatbelts to paint.


Other progress...

Wings and tail rudder




2000L and 1250L tanks done minus pylons. Not going to use them. They will go in my spares container.




Apache missile pair (left), 4 MICA missiles, and a pair of Magic sidewinders. I will be arming this one with Magic sidewinders on wingtips. The rest will.go in my separate weapons spares.




If anyone is interested in the belly tanks, Apache pair and/or MICA missiles, I'll be happy to part with them for free.

Just painted the seat belts. Tomorrow, the buckles are next. Thought I had save some PE belts from another kit (not the FW-190) but no dice.

Hobby Boss is a great brand even though at times it lacks details in certain areas - particularly the cockpit instrument panels and seat belts.

Super cool subject, Tom! Following along with you!
