Welcome Ben!
Work has started. Drilled holes in the lower wing for hardpoints and centerline fuel tank. Cockpit is nearly complete with photos soon since it will be nearly invisible once installed.

Added a shot of last night's work. The cockpit was installed and I'm ready to join the fuselage halves. The wheel well construction was also completed along with some paint work there.

Thanks Villiers!
Well I had to go and say "no issues at all" out loud… Funny that the cowling fit perfectly during dry fitting but once glue was applied a bit of sanding was needed to make it fit right. Also I painted the inside of the cowl Yellow Zinc Chromate even though the instructions barely mention anything other than the cowl and prop magically there on the last step.

Spent most of the morning sealing up the wheel wells and cockpit with tissue paper in preparation for primer and the initial color: AK Xtreme Aluminum.

You could have just started with the Hawk plated kit 😂 I'm thinking of trying chipping fluid on the prop but I will need to prime at least under the yellow tips.

That certainly would have cut a step out! I'm going to use the old hairspray method since I don't want to wait a week for chipping fluid.

Aluminum applied today. A little splotchy but luckily it's just an undercoat for chipping.

Extreme wear indeed. Maybe they didnt use etching primer back in the black and white days 🙂. You've done an excellent job of it. If this effect can be achieved with the old trusted hairspray method, why would one buy the chipping fluid. Maybe there are advantages I'm unaware of.

Not a bad little kit, looks quite robust and not to complicated. The cockpit was definitely worth getting, was it easy to find ??
Looking good 👍👍👍

Mr James: The hairspray has an added bonus in that one can will last for MANY projects.
Mr D: The kit is available under the Academy boxing I believe. As for the cockpit I believe it is still easy enough to find online.

Today I added the landing gear and the drop tank. The drop tank is not seen much in my photos, but I thought it looked nice. Decals are also done, so now it comes down to more weathering and exhaust stains.

Added a shot of the continuing weathering. Today I added the radio antenna wire. The last step is painting and weathering the bombs.

The instruction isn't mentioning the stand at all. As the torpedo is under the COG I would try to fix it to the torpedo.
Very nice progres so far. 👍

Leaning that way, Nicolas. I don't like it, but that's probably what I'll need to do.

@Mr D, the Devastator was a pre-War torpedo bomber that was one of the most advanced aircraft of its time. Unfortunately. it was already obsolete at the start of the war. It was slow and underpowered, and early-War tactics left its crews extremely vulnerable.

The Douglas TBD Devastator, was the U.S. Navy's main torpedo bomber. It was introduced in 1935, but was obsolete by 1939. They were replaced with the Grumman TBF Avenger.

I didn't know much about them, the pre-war yellow wings are smart scheme 👌

Both coming along really nicely now, the flap lines look a lot better now.
Looking like all the build updates.
Good luck with next steps 👌😁👍👍

Thanks, Mr D. I'm trying not to let the asymmetry bother me on the black-primed model. I wish I'd made a template or measured them instead of trying to follow the old panel lines. Still, I'm glad I made the effort.
Pure improvisation, Casey! It seems to be holding up so far. I want to do open or partially-opened canopies, so it didn't make sense to glue them in place, which is what I usually would have done.

It's very hot and dry where I am right now, and the paint isn't responding the way I'd like. I'll have to come back when conditions are better.

The kit is good quality, nice fitting. There is a mistake - Poland hasn't got Leopard 2A6, so you have to choose version 2A5
