Mongrel714 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Hello All! I have been watching this model for a couple weeks and decided to try it, this will be about my 10th aircraft since I decided to get back into building models, now granted when I was building as a child there wasn't any after market parts, (At least none I knew off) and I didn't try to modify the build either. Lucky enough for me there are several builds on line that are amazing and shows pretty much what to do to customize this airplane, I made it through the cockpit, then saw pictures of the radar and landing gear bays and see I have some work to do still, this is also my first post on a modeling forum, looking forward to learning from you guys, Thanks!

Mongrel714 Posted May 28, 2021 Author Share Posted May 28, 2021 (edited) Some putty pics. Oh, I also attempted to saw in the tire tread and it came out way out of scale and uneven, Sorry for the putty dust everywhere, still have to clean out some of the oil paint also. trying to cram everything I'm learning into one build. also have to fix the ejection marks on the cannon hatch. I cut out another hatch on the left engine, attempting to fabricate a motor mount and wiring harness for engine. Looking at the picture I see so much more to do and fill, when do you call it done?
