        Got the main wheels built and painted, also started the cockpit parts and tail wheel.

        I must add I’ve not glued the wheels into place yet, got some weathering to do.

                Thanks Tony, I could use most of it, if I knew where it all goes, I’ve no instructions and can’t seem to find any on the net.

                    Off to a great start Ian. Nice work and paint too. The etch will also make it shine Sir!!! BTW, has Tamiya paid you your kickback for starting this GB yet??? Just wondering as their stocks shares went up on the stock exchange..........Have fun.....

                        Very nice Ian, but daunting seeing all this and some strange names being used .
                        I've even ordered a set of paints from the shop to keep Andrew happy :smiling3:

                          Looks like she’s going together well Ian. Any issues so far?

                            It looks like it’s coming along very nicely Ian.

                              None so far Tim, a true Tamiya kit. Some great detail, and cracking fit. The nacelles may need some filler though.
