    The fitting of the seat and rear bulkhead to the rest of the cockpit gave me another small setback! Just as I thought it had all gone far too easy, there was a ping and the joystick went flying out, after a fruitless search, I decided to make one from some wire and a piece of sprue. With the replacement piece fitted, I gave the whole thing a trial run in the fuselage 😰 😊☺I'm calling it a success! The gaps will close up a touch more, and a bit of filler will make good any discrepancies. The wing assembly also fits albeit with a slight gap, but again friend filler will help out. next time it's glue it all together and give the bodywork and coat of primer. Thank you for visiting and commenting, and also for the likes 👍 Cheers

    But it is fun, if frustrating at times, and it keeps me occupied 😁😊 Thanks to all for the nice comments😉

    Thanks for the tips gents, the flash was on auto🙄. The rest of the troops have been primed, tunics and trousers painted and highlighted, also the skin parts have had one coat. those pesky allies have sewn bear traps everywhere 😁 thanks for your interest and 👍. Cheers Edit : No flash this time😊

    Well the seat belts that have been causing me grief have finally capitulated 😅 as can be seen the lower left belt on the back has no detail on it, this is a homemade replacement because the original part went MIA. It may be quite a while before I dip my toes in P/E again🤪😂 Thanks for all the likes, comments and just calling by. Cheers

    I decided to start painting the figures to have break from getting the F4U-1A cockpit to fit! thefirst guinea pig, poor fellow drew the short straw for letting me practice. It's been a few years since I painted any figures! Thanks for looking in. Cheers

    Welcome, Leo, have fun! Good work on your bulkheads 😉

    I still do it to the Admiral or grandkids even though we wear seat belts 🙄

    Looking good Chris, great filling jobs!

    Thanks EG for your faith in my dubious bashing skills, did I mention this is my first major foray into detailed add-ons🙄🤭 Yes the Black Box cockpit is very nice, but I could not find one within a reasonable budget for the life of me at the time!😔 I've been doing some serious sanding and thinning of both fuselage and cockpit tub😊, I'm nearly there with an acceptable fit and putty/filler is on standby! As I'm still wrestling with the P/E seat belts with my eyes going crossed after 10 minutes. That's another advantage of the Black Box offering, it's all resin parts, no curse inducing photoetch😃

    I'll tag along if you don't mind Tim?

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
