Sorry I missed so much of this Lee. Nice to see you back enjoying modelling again.
Looks a nice build .

I re-done the top Dials and added the decals to the Airfix Cockpit I installed. Next is to added the seat, joystick, canopy and the prop and I’m calling it done.

Nice job Lee

 

[Lee Drennen]

Calling this one done. Finished this one tonight. This was a fun little build.I added Antenna Rigging on this one first attempt to do this. I used fine wire for the Antenna. I’ll post it in Completed section tomorrow.

[Mini Me]

Nice finish......is this #3 from the "Dead Pool"?

 

[Dave Ward]

Lee,
nice one - definitely better with the canopy closed, looks really odd with it open...............

Scottie. Thanks for the complement and stopping by.

Rick. Thanks glad you hung in there during the long build. I’m hoping there’s going to more from the Dead Pool. Yes you are right #3

Dave. Thanks for helping me on this build and the Complement. I was thinking the same thing the second I opened the Office the Canopy looks too thick.

Andrew. Thanks for the complement. I’m glad you like it. It was a challenge but a fun build.
