WIP I want to do a hanger scene to go with this also the gloss needs knocking down I had a go at spraying the markings on instead of decals also the paint chips and worn edges need more work

also looking closer the cannon magazines they still look like wheels

I tried to get the second man doing something so I gave him a computer and radar for remote controlled turret

But at the end of the day its supposed to be fun and I enjoyed doing this and in my defense I do struggle at 1/72

I think 10/10 for imagination!!

Great project and as you say, just a bit of fun. I agree the mags look a bit too much like wheels but I'm sure you can do something with that. Brilliant idea though.

1/72? Yeeks....... I can't even imagine that! I bought a magnifier visor and its still a very strange experience to work with such small parts. The funny thing is that nowhere in the manual did it say to take them off......:lame:

Ok, I moved over to this thread. So, is the dio going to be like a spaze nazi or starwars empire?

Hi Jeff

The diorama I had in my head is:

I was going to do a hanger scene As there is no landing gear I was going to give it some vertical lift

to transport the aircraft to that point there's going to be dolly under the craft
