Peterpools Posted November 20, 2018 Posted November 20, 2018 Tony Holy Cow .. awesome Fokker and so glad she wound up on your bench! Beautiful build Peter 2
TJTX Posted November 24, 2018 Author Posted November 24, 2018 My Fokker build is all wrapped up so it's back to the big bomber. I just built up the tail this evening. It still needs sanding and clean up, but I'm quite happy how well it went together. 7
1to1scale Posted November 24, 2018 Posted November 24, 2018 Exciting to see, I have not seen anyone finish one of these for a while. 5

I thought this would be a bit of a drag on my mojo because it's so big. However, I thoroughly enjoy working on it and I am very excited to see it done in the future. 3
Peterpools Posted November 24, 2018 Posted November 24, 2018 Tony Great to see the B-25 back on the bench and underway again now that the Fokker is done and in the books Keep 'em comin Peter 3
BlrwestSiR Posted November 25, 2018 Posted November 25, 2018 Keep at it Tony. I'm starting work on the tailplanes myself. Or rather I will be over I'm back from visiting my sister in Chile. Carl 2
TJTX Posted December 13, 2018 Author Posted December 13, 2018 Wings are glued together now. I've started sanding and cleaning them up, but it'll be a big project restoring the rivets and panel lines. When I can get to the store for paint, I'll get back to work on the interior. 8
Bomber_County Posted December 13, 2018 Posted December 13, 2018 Looking good, nice to see this back on the bench......... 4
Guest DannyVM Posted December 15, 2018 Posted December 15, 2018 I'm not a bomber guy, but your progress look's very promising. Great work done on this beast.
Peterpools Posted December 17, 2018 Posted December 17, 2018 Tony Nice to see the Mitchell back underway. Just take your time and another beauty will emerge. Keep 'em comin Peter 1
TJTX Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 It lives! I've been hammered by work and life, along with trying to knock out a few other builds. I spent today working on the interior some more. The tail gunners position is all wrapped up and I started lining up the waste guns. A bit more painting on the interior and then I'll close up the fuselage. 8
BlrwestSiR Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Looks good Tony. Glad to see you back at it as well. Carl 3
NigelR32 Posted February 7, 2019 Posted February 7, 2019 Beautiful build Tony. Makes me wanna make a start on my B-25J 3
Peterpools Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Tony Great to see the B-25 back on the bench and progressing as time allows Keep 'em comin Peter 2
TJTX Posted February 10, 2019 Author Posted February 10, 2019 Thanks guys. I glued the fuselage halves together today and set her up on her own legs to see what I'm working with. It feels great getting the fuselage closed up. I also started working on turning the brass barrels into something more realistic looking. 5
Martinnfb Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Looking good Tony, this is probably the fastest B-25 build ever Cheers M. 3

The interior is very basic, but I just felt that most of it wont be seen and rather spend my time focusing on the exterior. 2
DocRob Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Looking good, did you use burnishing fluid for the barrels? That's my usual weapon of choice, no details lost, due to paint thickness and nice matte blackbrown finish. Cheers Rob 1
