  1. Thank you Andy, I appreciate the kind comment.
  2. Not pretty but at least now it "fits".
  3. Thank goodness for CA glue and Zip Kicker. 🤪
  4. Attaching the wings now. 🤪
  5. I hope I have it squared away now Gaz. Fingers crossed!
  6. Agreed Peter. That frame on top makes it possible to do the surgery. Otherwise I don't know what I'd do to fix the problem. 🙄
  7. My "fix" for the rear cockpit window was saw that mother in half and sand down the edges until I got a decent "fit". Later I'll have to do some careful cleaning up on the cut area.
  8. Thanks for the photos Dennis.
  9. I see Gaz. And I thought it was a subtle hint! LOL
  10. Looks to be a big airplane Dennis. That museum has some neat airplanes including a Bearcat.
  11. Ain't gonna happen Gaz.
  12. Not without cracking the seam right in front of the tail.
  13. Thanks Peter, I hope so. Not counting my chickens just yet though!
  14. Test fitting the wings. Not too bad I think. Fingers crossed.
  15. Very much so Hubert. 🤪
  16. More progress but one more problem found. I test fit the rear gunners turtleback window and found this problem with the fit. It's one thing after another on this SB2CSOB. 😐
  17. Yes indeed Peter.
  18. Gonna be some outstanding models for sure Peter. I look forward to following along.
  19. LOL Gaz. I hope it will be worth all the hassle but we will see.
  20. Thank you Ernie. I hope and expect this one will be a good looking model despite all the problems. However Ernie, there is NO WAY I'll want to build another one. 🤪
  21. Outstanding Peter! Really nice work and a model to be proud of.
  22. I very much appreciate the kind comments! It helps to make the build more worthwhile when you know it might be a inspiration to other modelers.
  23. Thanks Peter. The poor quality of most of the moldings and related fit problems do take away a lot of the enjoyment. I've done some preliminary work on the wings and I have to say, it looks like THAT'S going to be a real chore. 😉
