DocRob Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Will follow with interest. I have the same kit in stash along with the AM and cracked the box open several times. Maybe your build is a go for mine too. Cheers Rob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_County Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Jeroen, another masterclass in the offing. I’ve seen the HKM built up but never the Zoukie Mura boxing...........?.......... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted March 22, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted March 22, 2020 Thnx guys! Added more photo etch to the pit. The HK seat lacks 4 small reinforcements at the underside of the armrests so i added them from small strips and sanded them into shape. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted March 23, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted March 23, 2020 If you add the bomb to the internal bomb bay the detail is sufficient. But when you leave it out you’ll need to spice it up. Here are the first of some added details. also found a long thin spring to make the hose that is connected to the control stick. the do335a instrument panel has a few instruments more than the b version. So today i swapped my b version from eduard for the Yahu instrument panel. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted March 24, 2020 Administrators Share Posted March 24, 2020 Awesome build. I have the ZM kit, and I’m not ready for that battle right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted March 27, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted March 27, 2020 Since this kit isnt out on the market yet i have to make do with a test shot sprue that has many flaws. Short shot parts. The rear seat had a large hole in the back of the seat and the leg rests where half gone. I cut out the entire back and made a new one from green card. The leg rests were made from 0.3 mm rod. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators JeroenPeters Posted March 28, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted March 28, 2020 Thnx! the rudder pedal had to be re-done. There is only one known photo of the rear cockpit. I made a new floorplate and used spare PE and plastic to make something more realistic 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Somehow I completely missed that you were building the two seater. I thought for some reason this was the night fighter variant. Anyways, nice job on fixing the moulding defects. Carl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have built the B version before and am now building a test shot of the trainer sprue in combination with the A version. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted March 29, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted March 29, 2020 Gotta love that surface detail... since i’m using the Yahu instrument panel for the front pit, i cut out the center section of the eduard panel for the trainer pit. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted March 29, 2020 Administrators Share Posted March 29, 2020 Such is the world of building test shots, Jeroen. As usual, you da man for the job. I can think of no more qualified for this duty. Looking great as usual!! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lothar Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 That's a fascinating build and subject I'll follow with interest. As shame it seems the front row seats have all been taken by now Lothar 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted April 18, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted April 18, 2020 Working on the ip now. Took some work to make the yahu panel fit the kit parts. Make the instrument housings from rod. Removed the moulded wiring and made my own. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
