  1. Time to do some preliminary painting. Next I'll mask off the areas for the invasion stripes and get them laid down.
  2. I wonder why they aren't announcing any 1/32 WW II a/c. In my very humble opinion they are missing the boat for a couple of Hellcats (-3 & -5) and a better P-51B/C to name a few. I've been doing my bit on their 1/32 kits so now it's time for them to step up.
  3. Agreed. It could have been a lot worse though.
  4. Same here Dennis. I did leave the cowlings off and did some detailing on my 1st Mk IX a few years ago. I figure that has it covered. LOL
  5. Yep, no point in adding them if they won't be seen. Thanks!
  6. Since I plan to have the engine covers in place there's no need to do any detailing, etc. there.
  7. High and dry now. Too bad it was further damaged on recovery.
  8. No doubt it will be a big job but at least the a/c was saved.
  9. Thank you. Nope, no rework at all. Completely OOB, etc.
  10. Agreed! Very well done. It has been recovered now for rebuild, etc.
  11. Making some progress! I'll start on the nose next with engine covers in place.
  12. Good to hear Dennis.
  13. I hope they are getting on with it soon!
  14. Very lucky he had a place withing gliding distance to land.
  15. I'm a bit surprised no one has posted this here so far. Apparently he had engine trouble and took the best coarse of action to save the airplane. Textbook ditching. I hope the plane can be recovered before the ocean tears it apart.
  16. Coming along very well Martin. WAY too much work to correct that kit. That's why mine is, and will likely stay, on the SOD.
  17. Thanks Phil. That's what I understand. Pretty snug!
