Christopher AdamusThank you. I've been passive observer for quite some time but this platform needs more exposure and traffic as it's a goldmine to any scale modeller.

J35JThanks Gorby! This is my second vacu kit build and this time it feels a little bit more straight forward…
My experience so far with vacu kits is that you have to spend a good amount of time on fitting, sanding and putty work to get a nice base for paint and finishing. Also spending quite some time reviewing old photos to get a good picture of the details. This as there is a fair amount of scratch work to get a decent build.

Robert PodkońskiYou're a brave man, indeed! I will follow this thread with pleasure, for sure.

Mr DNice, Nice 👍👍, lalways wanted to see a vacform build, Do you have to make up other parts to add on ??
Thanks for upload 😃👍

J35JThanks Mr D for your comments.
There will certainly be scratch build involved, mainly regarding the details as it looks for now. Otherwise I will raid my spare part stash first in order to save time and frustration.
If you are intrested in vac kits you can also have a look at my first vac kit:

Mr DThanks 👍👍 great, will do , l have an intest...as l enjoy making parts, lve had to do it few times, when parts lost or broken or details missed of kit...even canopy once 🤣.
Will check out the XP-67

J35J@Mr D - yes you will need some good scissors as a start😅, for the fine tuning of the parts I normally use saw razor blades and sanding paper of variuos grits. Regarding glue I use "normal" Tamyia Extra Thin, the vacu kit plastic is often quite soft and melts easily.

J35J@Skyhiker - Happy to hear that your following with great intrest. Usually the building pace goes down during the sommer period as I have been reminded that we have a garden that also need some TLC…😂
Nevertheless, yes there is planning and ordning of parts going on behind the scenes. Cockpit need to be done, rescribing the full kit, alignment of wheels as the mold was totally off-set. Drill out all machine guns for after market parts etc.
The main work will be to prepare the plane for NMF look also including some aluminum dope areas. Will try AK's metal paints this time. Stay tuned!

Łukasz GlińskiLuckily the old Russian saying applies to Sweden too - "we have only 10 months of winter, but all the rest is summer!" 😄

J35JMr D - regarding reference photos and material, did research some photos and blue prints on-line. In addition I have also checked out some ref builds both in 1/72 & 1/48 for further input on details.
Yes, the PE venting turned out good. Next step is to paint the cockpit and glue the airframe together

Mr DGreat 👍👍 l like something different n interesting like this.
I recently used the thick tin foil of a hot chocolate lid to make a lost seat belt, it worked really well.
Like the seat.
Thanks for input n uploading 😁👌

J35JThanks Thomas, really appreciate your comment!
As usual the project ambition increases over time…😂

J35JMr D - thanks for your intrest and encouraging comments.
This time I went the easy way with just some tape for seat belts

Mr DThanks, Appreciate the interest, lm reality new to the hobby about 14 months, finding my way with techniques.
Weathering n panel lines need more learning.
The IAR-80 was decent price from HB and liked the paint scheme...bit different
👍👍
18 August, 13:25
Mr DThanks J35.
Nice to have the interest, HB instructions bit weak!
They said to paint interior charcoal black like on the FW-190.
But l checked n the Romanian lAR interior was grey/blue.
Engine building next 6 parts deal.
Cheers 😃👍

TreehuggerIs it just me, or does this seem a little expensive for just 2 barrels, when a bomber plane might have some 10 machineguns?
