Alexandros MarinosThis week I completed the cockpit,aftermarket belts were added and the final result after painting-washing was pretty good.
Engine and landing gear system were also done and so I managed to close the airframe.Was a bit tricky and needs dry fits in order to align the two halves and avoid leaving gaps.
Next step, sanding the wet putty and adding the engine compartement with the cowling.

Alexandros MarinosEngine,cowling and main wings were added this week.
I have also masked the interior green areas to the wings and made some rescribing to panel lines which were lost due to sanding.

Alexandros Marinos- The kit was primed with badger ultimate primer grey
and then made some preshading to the panel lines
-For the upper surfaces I used RC 256 (Blue gray) from AK and for the undercarriage H315 from Gunze (FS16440)
-For the end I sprayed the upper surfaces with lighter basic color in order to make some fading to the panel lines.
Thank you for watching!
