Love that varied delivery package.

Yeah. A whole bunch of different pressies! D'you think Ron has a part-time job as an Amazon delivery driver?

 

[Jim R]

You're making good progress Ron. Looking good and doesn't seem to have presented any issues.

 

[Allen Dewire]

Playing ketchup Ron and love the idea to show the guts. Unfortunately, I don't think the finished product will withstand very much chucking-up for pics to post in the completed section...Now, of course, maybe you have another evil plan for that.........Fantastic work so far Sir!!!

Allen. Evil plan, me?

Bomb Bay finished.
Just some tidying up later.









Cheers.

Nice progress 570, the guts of this girl look pretty much stuffed with goodies to drop on the jerries. Love all the scratchy that is going into this.... will be the "bomb" when finished!:tears-of-joy:

 

[spanner570]

Thanks Rick, but really, is that the best you can do to end a post?:tongue-out3:

On we go.....

I've brushed on a first coat of some Vallejo Air interior green and some Aluminuumn too! No primer. The both paints covered the bare plastic remarkably well. Could well leave it at that. I'll see.







Notice the main spars poking through.






Cockpit bit attached to the Bomb Bay bit. Both attached to the starboard fuselage front end bit.





Next, I'll make up the typist stools area.

Cheers.
Ron

It's worse than that, Ron- it's a GLOVE!

Minus 2 degrees (F) here today and I must plow......at least 4 inches of snow on the drive, I could use some heated LJ's about now.

Nice one Rick. Stay warm....

I've just realised a bit of scratchery is needed in this area too. I'll have to add them later.
Cheers.

[Mini Me]

Well now Mr. Ron, that's a "bit" of alright! Looking forward to the scratch wizardry. :thumb2:

Obviously a technical term. :smiling5:

Yeah! You got to get up real early to catch Ron out with a mistake when it comes to the correct technical terms for stuff!

I used to wear thermals in the winter when working outside 570 , at least the car has a heated seat and guidance stick !

Heavens above you've got good sight Neil, thought no one would notice

Well Ron, I imagine if you brought your laptop or iPad with you and played ketchup here on the forum, time would 'fly' by pretty quickly......Just saying.........

Coat on and out the door..................
