Stephan RyllJust started with this PE battle 🙂
The first thing to overcome is to match the colours of the preprinted parts
the pictures show some effect of light reflection - especial on the instrument panel - I will fix this by adding a matt coat and give the instruments some glossy coat
hope you like it

Stephan RyllThank you Ben, your comment is much appreciated 🙂
the colour of the instrument panel looks a little bit strange caused by the print on it 🤔
grey is the most complicated colour to print and in this case they used a very low screen ruling or inkjet print quality
but there is not much of it visible after it's put into place - therefore it does not bother me to much 🙂

Nathan DempseyThe cockpit is looking great Stephan. I really like the wood grain on the floor.

Stephan RyllThank you Nathan and Thomas glad that you like it 🙂
The wood is a pe part that's painted in different brown colours finished with a black and brown wash
I'm also happy with the result 🙂

Stephan RyllPrimer is finally on 🙂
I decided to go for a closed canopy without a pilot, cause of the nice details inside
25 April 2019, 17:53
Stephan Ryllgot the underside done 🙂
this time pictures with white background - blue plane on blue background - no good idea 😄

JensThe Tamiya Kit really makes a good impression 👍
Your modeling skills will turn it into a jewel 👍 until today I only built the Accurate Miniature, let's see what the year will bring 🙂

Stephan RyllHehe Christian, may some day I will do a car or something else😉
Thank you Nathan, I'm also happy with the result 🙂

Konrad -Very nice progress Stephan! The paintwork looks great 👍! The pit is an eyecatcher too!
2 May 2019, 20:35
Stephan RyllThank you Jens, James and Konrad your comments are much appreciated 🙂
@Jens - this kit is the best I worked on till now - I can recommend it
@ Konrad - not much is visible of the pit - what a pity😉
3 May 2019, 13:46
Konrad -As always😉! So much time we spent for the perfect pit... And at the end you only see a very small part of it😉!
3 May 2019, 14:46
Stephan RyllThat's so true Konrad - a lot of time consuming details are never seen again after the build is done 🤔
3 May 2019, 17:47
Stephan RyllIndeed Konrad we know - therefore I put a little detail to the tailgunner position😉
Not much of this will be seen when put into position 🤔 but it's there

Stephan RyllThank you Arne and Björn,
glad that you like it 🙂
Just for the record😉 the decals are very thin and tend to break when moved after set to the surface 🤔

Stephan RyllThank you Thomas your comment is much appriciated 🙂
I like it when the plane looks worn and used 🙂
12 May 2019, 15:12
Stephan RyllThank you Florian 🙂 I will put a little matt coat on - it's still to shiny
12 May 2019, 18:07
Stephan RyllThank you James, your comment is much appreciated 🙂
I'm also quite happy with the result till now 🙂
14 May 2019, 17:36
Stephan RyllToday only some small progress 🤔
I finished the rear gunner position 🙂 but I wished to had smaller fingers to get that stuff in there easily
Japanes people may have smaller fingers😉
15 May 2019, 18:17
David JanuskaNice job Stephan👍. I like all of the details in the cockpit and rear gunner. We all here on the scalemates know that they are there, thank you for the photos.
15 May 2019, 18:26
Stephan RyllThank you David 🙂 your comment is much appreciated
I'm very happy with the rear gunner section
Maybe a reargunner back in those days were unhappy people - they didn't have a seat only a very little hammock to sit in 🤔
15 May 2019, 19:22
Stephan RyllThank you James, glad that you like it 🙂 I agree with you that the reargunner had a lot of worries - like the nice little fuel tank behind him 🤔
16 May 2019, 15:42
Nathan DempseyThat rear gunner seat (strap?) reminds me of the little hammock - like seat used by the radar operator in the F7F-3N Tigercat. Looks great!

Stephan RyllYes Donald this is Tamiya goodness - except of the mask - it was very painful to remove them - they are very sticky
But for now I can say I'm nearly down the line with this build. Some engine grime and some touch ups here and there and this big bird is ready 🙂
Found out that the base I liked to put it on is a little to small - so I will correct this within the next days
17 May 2019, 15:21
Donald Dickson III did the Hobby Boss 1/32 and loved it. I like what you did with yours. Great job!
18 May 2019, 00:25
Stephan RyllThank you Donald, your comment is much appreciated
Hope to get some more pictures done today

Slavo HazuchaGreat stuff all over and a nice camo pattern too! Crew spot on too with poses & finish 👍

Stephan RyllThank you mates for your overwhelming comments 🙂
Figures are from two ICM sets
Colours are from vallejo
It was a pleasure to build this kit 🙂
Glad that you like it

Stephan RyllI was not happy with the last setup of the dio - so I rearranged some things
added more figures to give it more life
added some used drums and tools
and finale found a solution to show the nice detail of the PE parts of the landing flaps
hope you like it 🙂
