Project P61A GWH COMPLETED
Eduard PE
More PE
Rear part of front compartment
Cockpit coming together
The PE looks fine!
This is all PE. The Big ED is absolutely marvelous to this kit, tons of PE 🙂
Preparing to close up. Critical... a LOT o components that has to fit in the fuselage-sides.
Glued and clamped
The result was... OK, not more. Lots of filling needed.
Front cockpit
Front cockpit again
Rear cockpit
I've decide to ditch the radar and use the dome for counterweight. What was GWH thinking when they did the pitot-tube fixed on the dome? Impossible not to break during the rest of the work. Think I'll wait as long as possible before fixing it.
Engineparts awaiting assembly
True Detail Resin to the left, original to the right!
Also the engine-cowlings are much better from True Detail
Engines reday to go into the cowlings. Not much will be visible...
Subassemblies coming together!
Black paint, some chipping and the decals are ready. Next stop weathering - my weakness... I'll keep it gentle
Finally done!
Looong project, nice to have finished it
Just going to add two antenna-wires at the back

Robin FalkenhemYeah, the panel is great. Wish I could take credit for it - it's all pre-coloured PE with some drybrushing and clear-cote on the dials. Very easy, but looks real good though.
I must say, Eduard provides VERY much PE in their BIG ED to this kit.

Bart GoesaertInstrument panel looks very nice and convincing, regarding the cockpit sidewalls, the wash seems a bit heavy, but that's my opinion

Holger Kranich@ Bart: Pappy Boington was in there and poured two bottles of Whiskey in the pit! LOL

Yeah, see what you mean. Looks darker on the photos than IRL, cellphone-photos. I think it will look good when everything comes together.
