Kit does Madge **and has a rest**

It is coming along really well! I think you have to try and do something about the non-existent engines though, that will stick out like a sore thumb on the finished model otherwise.

Forgot the Heller GB starts on Saturday, but got a simpler plan to sort it

[Kitaholic]

Dumped the simpler plan and went for replacement

The cowl on the right is straight from the box, middle is the kit cowl with the centre removed and left is an engine from the Airfix B-29. Fingers crossed now



Think a bit of black paint will have to do for the intake

Madge is starting to show her chunky lines

Nice!

Watching this makes my Plasticart BE6 look rather sad and minimalist. Still, I'll build it some day. Yours looks great and gives me ideas on how to improve the Plasticart one.

All the best.

I was planning on doing that too Greg, but then Trumpeter saved me the bother. Have you seen seawings for drawings on how to improve it?

Anyway basically ready for the paint shop now, just a couple of gaps I noticed to sort


The "new" engines

This and the Mail might be difficult kits but you've got them looking good.

[gnomemeansgnome]

Looking great so far. Sure looks like the Martin Mariner's Russian cousin.

[Kitaholic]

Thanks guys. Decals are on both and just finishing the panel lines, pics later

[Kitaholic]

bit of touching up then ready for matting



Getting detail parts ready now
