Ohhhh, this is tempting. Thank you for the review James. Cheers Martin

Beauty!

It would be little more involved then just filling holes and adding the tail wheel. Different leading edge/wing profile, different gear bay doors, different engine housing and fairings without cooling slots. Different canopy, different shape of the nose, more slanted. Lots of work to do it right. I can dig deeper and get some drawings if you guys interested.

Sorry Kevin, I should have been more specific, Airfix made the G6. Which I’m converting to K4. sewing pins

Nice progress.

Oh this was good. Funny, slow burning with refined characters and decent plot.

Thank you for the review James, this is definitely a gem of a kit. A must have I would say. Might join the Marauder party as well. Cheers Martin

NICE!

The progress is slow, I can work behind my bench only for short period of time. Usually ten minutes at the time. The main wing is almost ready. I finalized the shape of the wing bulges and created space for the ejection port shoot that is somewhat compromising the integrity of the gear leg assembly. I’ve also been working on the shape of the power egg , however the progress is much slower there, since everything has to be recreated from nothing. The original parts serve as a locators for positioning if the exhaust , gun ports etc. I know, one would say that there’s not much difference between the G and K models , but in reality everything has to be altered , scratched build or modified in one way or the other

Nope

This is as good as it can get, pure modeling insanity. Your creativity and skill set are second to none. Bravo! Cheers Martin

Brilliant, I love the idea and execution!

That’s the laugh I needed. Thank you Carl

There as a short delay due some medical emergency. But I am still here and kicking, maybe not literally well you know what I meant. This is what we are heading for.

Beautiful paint job.

So cool, I remember Velorex from my childhood, there was one disabled neighbour who had it. So crazy, I would never say that this will be a subject of a model kit release.

More less, the larger supercharger and heads required reshaped engine bearers , hence the cowling , larger tires =. bigger wing bulges, big tail and Erla canopy was already pretty much standard. Another v visible change was retractable wheel. There is much more in differences and a small details. However 109 is like English language , it is defined by exceptions to its own rules.

Grafting Trump radiator on the Airfix power egg assembly. You can see how Trump had to compensate for the nose up attitude by altering the slope of the upper edge. And how I tried to alter it by layer of putty at the front of it.

Preliminary shaping. Even Sabrina’s are aging , you know. modified Trump in primer

When I go completely mental, I won’t tell anyone, but there will be signs.
