JohnB Posted April 13 Author Share Posted April 13 I decided to come back to this build for a bit and try to sort out the problems I had earlier. I was able to get it together properly so now I can continue with the build. I plan to work on this and the Revell Spitfire simultaneously. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 So, not quite Tamiya build quality. Glad you took the short break and have come back to it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some times you just have to step back and do something else for a bit. Hopefully things will go a bit more smoothly now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterpools Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 John Faster then expected doesn't come close. Once you are on a roll, you're supersonic and flying high. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Nice to see you back on this one John. The engineering complexity of this kit is what I was wondering about when I saw the CAD drawings for the first time. Not a Tamiya/Martin friendly kit for sure Looking good and moving fast as usually . Cheers Martin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When all that's done I'll attach the gear and other items. I expect to have it finished in a day or two barring unforseen problems. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
