Thanks Paul! 🙂

I decided to close up the nose section this time. The guns would be vulnerable to breakage so I'll rig some kind of "collar" around the nose to protect them. (I'll straighten them out later on.) 

[JohnB]

Since this is such a large model I decided to paint in sections. Wing and fuselage undersides first. The OD uppers will be next then I'll see about joining the wings to the fuselage.

[JohnB]

Painting, except for many touch ups, is complete. I'm working on attaching the wings and other odds and ins now. 🙂

Wow, nice progress John. The wing joint design is apparently super snug. 

Cheers

Thanks Martin. Unfortunately it's not as snug as it looks. I turned the model over to attach the other wing and it came off. I had to re-do attaching it and now I think it will stay put (fingers crossed). 

[JohnB]

Wings attached and painting, other than weathering, complete.
