Made a start on the 1/32 Trumpeter F4F-4 Wildcat, I'm having my wings permanently folded, this is just all dry fitted so far, I'll add more detail later when the wing is added. No point cleaning up the inside part of the wing of ejection holes, as this will be hidden behind the wing. Think it looks ok so far.

So today I've semi painted up the other sides wing root fold system. And started dry fitting the engine. Need to pick a scheme from the Techmod decals at some point, thinking of 1 or 4 so far.

Ooh landing gear and engine support structure. Just needs a few touchups, thats it done for now, have to glue it all up straight away, doing it later would be a pain in the ass. Looks ok, I'm no expert on these things. Just for fun build in-between other stuff.

Ian Doody
I think, as an engine that'll do really, don't need anymore detail on it. Couldn't see it if it was there anyway. I'll paint the rear bank of cylinders, but that's probably it.

Ian Doody
That's all for today, making the most of what you get in the kit, only added bits of wire, no sense going mad with detailing parts you wont see. Prop tomorrow, finish the rear bank of Cylinders, and make a start on the cockpit. Looking nice so far, looks like an engine to me.

Ian Doody
Engine, exhaust manifold system and front bulkhead done. For what you can see, the kit parts are good enough. No point spending lots of money on a resin engine. Just some wire and a bit of paint.

Looking special 👍 I'm in 😎

Looking good and detailed build notes, following. 👍

That's it for today, don't think I can handle seatbelts as well. So far so good, looks like a cockpit, when it's in the plane, you won't see anything. I tarted up the kit seat, as I couldn't stomach making the PE eduard one.

Rui S
hum, hum 😎 looking good 👍

Ian Doody
So I can do seat belts, but I hate doing seatbelts, not brilliant, but for all you'll see, it'll do me. My fear of PE is lessening, I'm getting a bit more confident each time, next the top straps. Then I can tackle the joining of the fuselage halves together, which is tricky on the 1/32 Trumpeter F4F-4 Wildcat, as a few parts need extra sanding to fit. Looks ok to me so far.
