JohnB Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 Making progress. It's hard to tell but the cockpit is actually interior green but, in the photos it looks like yellow zinc chromate. Oh well. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnB Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 Thanks guys. Remember, I had a head start with the cockpit when I resumed work on this kit. 😀 I have to say, I'm not really all that pleased with the engine but it is what it is at this point. Oh well....😐 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnB Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 As sometimes happens I've gotten tired of this build. When that happens to ME it's a formula for aggravation and screwups. So, I've put it aside for now and will look around for something else to work on (certainly don't have a shortage of kits to choose from). I'll get back to it LATER. 😐 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a bit "uninspired" and decided the best thing to do was set it aside for a bit and work on something else. I'm well along on it but I decided to give it a short rest. I'll get back to it pretty soon (after I finish the Revell PV-1) which had been sitting on my shelf staring at me for a good while. It should go well with the 1/48 A-26 I finished recently. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
