Yes I know they’re for the D version, but plenty of them will work just fine. Onward with the build! They actually work for a lot of planes, same with leftover F4U decals. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 24, 2018 Author Administrators Share Posted September 24, 2018 OK, how do you tell when you’re done building a “garage resin” kit? When you look around and realize there are no more parts left to fit. Everything’s just fitted together without glue, just friction. I’m actually making this harder than I need to because I’m using a lot of AM and getting it to fit is tough 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocRob Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Nice, everything seems to fit in and the gaps between the fuselage halves don't look to be problematic. When you are not anymore covered with resin dust, you know you are almost there . Cheers Rob 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airscale Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Hi Ernie.. great job and great to see another early 51 in the mix this is a bit of a unicorn for me - I have heard of Jerry's kit, but never seen one built - looks to be in great hands and coming along very nicely indeed!
