    I did a little work over the last month. I partially painted the fuselage. I use spray cans and was concerned about my ability to get paint and masks on under the wings, I am also getting the engines mounted on the wings. The OzMods engines are a little bigger than the mounting nacelles on the model, so putty and sanding (my two least favorite modeling activities) was the order of the day. After getting everything done, I somehow snapped the one engine off and am now redoing the putty/sanding routine. 😞 I also started
  2. My wife would divorce me if I spent that much for some after market parts.
  3. 98% done. I just need to fabricate and attach the winglets. I think I finally found a good photo and will finish this after a couple of road trips this week and next.
  4. My apologies, I went into my album and most of my URGENT FURY pics are missing. Sorry.

    Info on EC-47's

    The EC-47 nose was elongated IIRC.
  6. We didn't have seats installed, just sat on the floor.
  7. Please let us know how the nose goes. I too have the DB nose, and was thinking I'd have to go with the Italeri kit.

    BONE build

    I think it would be rare for the crew to mix Flight Suit colors as the colors are theater specific (CentCom=Tan). This YouTube video show flight suits, and no G-suit. .

    Hard to see, but the Blackdog exhausts fill the hole in nicely.
  10. 82nd CAB? I'll dig my photos up if you'd like.
  11. Is that a true HUD, or just a gunsite?

    Originally posted in another thread The OzMods nacelles exhausts are hollow. I'm going to cut some Black dog exhausts down to fit and that way I have a rear turbine. Built the first external tank. There is a bit of a gap between the pylon and top of the tank, so I get to do some more putting and sanding. 😞 I didn't cut the one nacelle off cleanly, so I have another gap to fill. Slowly, like a snail, coming along.
