Thank you Hubert. So far so good.

Thanks! So far so good although I'm still feeling awfully weak, etc. Sucks to be sick!

Thank you! I very much appreciate the kind thoughts.

Thanks. Getting better!

Hanging in here Gaz! Thanks.

I appreciate that, thanks!

Thank you Kai! No idea right now as to what's next. We'll see!

Thanks!!!

LOL Rob. No secret at all. A easy to build kit with no problems and me with plenty of time to build. Thanks!!!

Thanks Dennis! I appreciate that.

Thank you Gaz!

Thank you Peter! I appreciate the kind words. It think it turned out okay.

All done. Check completed work.

I'm calling this one done. Typical Hasegawa kit with great details and very nice fit. Makes it a pleasure to build. After market includes some cockpit placards, Finemolds seat belts, Grey Matter prop blades, and Eduard fishtail exhausts. Painted with Model Master throughout. Decals are from the kit. I hope you guys like it! Remember to click on the 1st photo for best resolution and to view as a slide show. 😉

Coming along very nicely Gaz!!!

That's one way of doing it Peter but not one I've ever used. I just trim down the main spars a bit so they slide right on in without a problem. I will sometimes put a bit of Vaseline on the ends to aid things along. 😉

LOL Phil. I agree, pretty fast on this build. Such a easy kit to build makes that possible. Right now I've completed the painting and am applying the decals. Ought to have it finished by Monday. 😉

LOL Peter.

Next is the underside gray then the uppers OD.

Ready for some PAINT!

Yes indeed Dennis!

Thanks Carl. Yes, that seam can be a problem. I attach the rear halves separately to the fuselage halves instead of following the kit instructions. That way you can line it up better.

Thanks Peter!

More progress. Guess I can start painting soon.
