Bulldog 09 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) Hey all, Here are some photos of the gun bay on Christine. I know that there are a butt load of photos of the gun bay with the gun out there but not many without it. I have also included some shots of the M61 drive gear box and the inside of the boarding ladder housing. So here you go, I hope that they help.

GreyGhost Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Nice ! Those should prove very useful for the folks wanting to detail that part of their Tomcat builds ... Thanks for sharing those ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mareku Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 (edited) Thank You Dave for the pictures. There are meny modelers who builds Tomcat models in deferent scale and, like me, they will be so hapy to see, how the gun bay is build, without gun monted in it. Great that you did takein the pictures and published here in the forum. Edited September 10, 2010 by mareku Quote Link to post Share on other sites
