A bit of a small update for this project. I've not exactly been hurrying with this kit; more like wandering over when I feel energetic and tinkering a wee bit.
I finally managed to get the cockpit section completed and i ahve to dmit that it loks like an utter dog's breakfast.
Somehow other people manage to fit all these tiny bits together and make it look neat and realistic. I made it look like the whole thing was put together by drunken orangutans.I also managed to lose not one but three tiny parts. Two dropped on the floor and vanished, the third pinged off when I tried cutting it off the sprue and could be anywhere in Hampshire.
Oh, yes, I snapped both control columns in half. That's why they're so short the pilots have to steer with their knees.
My hopes of this being soemthing I can post on /r/modelmakers are already fading...
More updates to follow. Or I might just give up and jump on and down on the bloody thing. Could go either way.
