Same here. Just never got around to it.

I'm just getting my stuff together for it and haven't decided on any particular a/c.

I just got a shipping notice from them so they should show up pretty soon.

I found them at High Planes Hobbies.

Thanks Martin. Now if I can find someone who actually HAS some I'll see about purchasing a set.

Sorry but nope.

I remember someone making these (Cobra Company?) but haven't the foggiest as to where I might find any. All help is appreciated!

Progress! Now to go back to the cockpit and re-install everything and then attach the canopy parts. Dare I say it's downhill from here.

Wings adjusted and roots faired in, etc.

Bummer for sure. I'll go on and finish it and move on to something else.

After taking a closer look I do believe the fuselage is slightly warped. Not a thing I can do about it so I'll just have to live with it. Sure wish I had noticed it when I could fix it.

It might be slightly out but some of it is a optical illusion due to lighting and areas that have primer on them and others that don't. At any rate there's nothing I can do about it now.

I hadn't noticed that but it does look out of alignment. I'll have to check it out. If it is there's nothing I can do to correct it at this late date.

This much has to be trimmed off to allow the wings to attach with the proper dihedral.

Hanging low right now! LOL

Taped the wings in place just to show what will have to be dealt with to get the correct dihedral. Piss poor engineering by HpH.

LOL! Hopefully I won't need quite that much!

Ready to attach the wings to the fuselage. Not going to be a slam dunk by any means judging from past experience. It'll take a fair amount of trimming but it will get done.

Duplicate post. Sorry.

The Mk III is one of my favorite German tanks along with the Panther. Lots of nice kits of both available.

It's not that I dislike Russian stuff as much as it just isn't my "thing" Ernie.

I'll consider it Ernie.

Yep. Too bad alright. And they did such a nice job on the surface details, etc. Must have been a different bunch doing the engineering.

Thanks Ernie. I've been doing work on it off and on during the B-24 build and now decided it's time to finish her off. I'm still a little undecided on markings but it's possible it will be a French a/c in IndoChina/Vietnam as I have the nice decal sheet for that. However, I'd REALLY like to do another US one but haven't found any, other than "A's", that I like. I will stick with a "C" no matter. A Russkie one would look good but I just can't warm up to that.
