Artful69 Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Apparently I have a couple of Amur Reaver correction sets and props on the way to fix up the G-10 Erla kits I have … BUT … they have no stock of the G-6 correction, which - to my knowledge - was the best out there. So - needs must … does anyone else do anything to fix that mess that’s actually worth the outlay? Rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Hi Rog, Gazz is absolutely right, Barracuda has you covered. The most glaring problems are: - the gun cowlings, bulges, prop blades. You can top it up with the seat, intakes, tail wheel, even the elevators. I would get Eduard's wing cannons as well in case you're planning kanonenboot.

Martinnfb Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 There is no cheap way to build 109 G 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Just to add the other perspective, I built one straight from the box and though it looked pretty good. I hardly notice the main issue which are the cannon bulges on the nose when she was in my cabinet. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's Me Brad I build to keep the mind/hands from going idle some are purest at heart all good for me though it's having fun.I will walk that road only so often even then not to the extent of others life is short and to many kits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaS Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Oh, Oh!!! We forgot to mention the biggest thing! The Revell main landing gear are trash. Weak with a split construction that makes no sense. I used brass gear on my kit, and then bought another set by SOW for the G-10 in my stash. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
