Rotation is well hidden. To rotate your photos, open your album. Click on "manage". Then turn on the "advanced options" toggle. You will now have the ability to rotate photos in the album.

Doubtingmango
Beautiful work!

Tcamp
Thank yall
Im not a rivet counter or anything but.....
The more i looked at the kit boom i could not figure how it would work ..
Revell had their boom right im also going to support mine as they did and use poles instead of ratlines. Which tie down inside of the work area ?
Im not feeling that one either lol
Again thanks

Oooohhh... so nice 🙂
A Lindberg kit? Seen them but never got one, yet. That looks amazing.

Started out life as a Pyro Plastics kit which in turn was a reverse-engineered copy (pretty much a blatant rip-off) of the Model Shipways wooden kit of the M.T. (Motor Trawler) Hildina H-222 which was built by Cook, Welton & Gemmell Ltd. in 1951. If you look for photos, you will see it matches the Hildina except for some artistic license in the pilothouse windows mainly but an easy fix. The sloped rear pilothouse roof is also a distinctive feature of the Hildina. Apparently the front boom can face forward or aft (is it on a swivel?) according to need. I know the boom was used to hoist the cod end (heaviest part of the net) aboard. These kits are a great basis for conversion to R/C as the original plastic kits were motorized.

Hey snake
Your spot on ive allways had this on my radar
Yeah its on a swivel but i have it fixed i employed artistic licsense on the boom the chain woud not be there only a pulley but i like the chain lol....

I got this kit for a reduced price on a flea-market - due to the fact that the cockpit and seat were missing. The former owner spoiled it or put it aside - I don't know exactly. But it wouldn't be me not taking this challenge. Lets go and scratch an Eurofighther cockpit...

Łukasz Gliński
Interesting challenge

Juergen Klinglhuber
thx for your interest Lukasz. I joint the fuselage last night & the cockpit did fit 🙂
pics will follow soon.

Excellent cockpit, following! 👍

Juergen Klinglhuber
Hi mates - thank you for your nice words on my scratch work. Time consuming - but It came along nicely and better than I did expect.

Michael Kohl
Following too.

A little late, but watching with pleasure 🙂

Juergen Klinglhuber
Welcome. No worries - it's summertime again (progress is slow ... 😉 )

Harry Eder
Nice scratched cockpit! Watching with interest! 👍

Juergen Klinglhuber
Thank you Harry. Welcome.

As the cockpit is done I have to catch up with the Eurofighter Typhoon - "Austrian Typhoons" 7L*WB | Album by jott (1:72) build which is almost done. Beside livery the kit is 1:1 the same, so making up leeway isn't that hard I hope.

Nice work so far! I had the same issue with the warped vertical stabiliser on this kit.

DerMattes
Just checked the newer Revell Eurofighter (Ghost Tiger box). It seems to have the same problem with the stabiliser 🙁

István Szücs
It's perfect! Thank you for sharing!
