GazzaS Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 John, You're smashing it! Everything looks great! Foil? 3
DocRob Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 Like the others say, great job on the build and modification. Can't wait to see your smooth paint finish on the Ventura. Cheers Rob 3
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted August 13, 2021 Administrators Posted August 13, 2021 Dang! I take a peek in and suddenly a Ventura grew out of a Corsair. Nice clean build so far, John. Those engine sure add to it all. There’s “smart” AM, and then AM that we do just because. Like endless PE where it isn’t really needed. Those engines a d cowls certainly qualify as very smart AM. 3

Looking forward to seeing it on your beautiful model. Expand Thanks! This is such a easy kit to build it just doesn't take a lot of time to get it done. The main "time consumer" has been the new nacelles. Right now the underside white and intermediate blue sides are done. 4
