Evening all, some more progress done in between trying to settle our little pooch who was terriefied by all the Fireworks going off around us, poor thing was trying to find somewhere to hide - we had to have the TV volume way up to try to help. So It was Flaps time - they are positionable up or down, the flap actuation arms come in Two different shapes in the kit, I decided to make them dropped - bit fiddly getting them ligned up, but after a bit of adjustment - they are on.

Evening all, double tasking today - So I sanded the wing/fuselage join, then I fitted the airbrake assembly, and the tailplanes. OC. -
Evening all, Last stage of this build - I finshed making the tow ropes, these were fiddly little fellas as they are made of thread, this needed re-twisting then gluing to keep the shape, then the ends were glued, I then had to manufacture Two clips to hold them at the back - but was able to use the Two original ones from the kit (the other Two went missing). I then painted and weathered them. So I am calling this Finished. Sincere thanks to all the feedback and help encouragement with this build - it was a great model to build and am I looking forward to the M1 kit "oh yes deffo" So here are the last pics of it. OC.

Evening all, we bit of progress - the bird has wings - I started off painting/weathering the wheel wells, then the wing assemblies where contstructed, then glued in place, I tiny bit of putty in a hair line gap - but not a bad fit, still needs a bit of sanding to blend the lines. OC. -

Thank you kindly Ken. OC. -
Good to see you back on this - sometimes a second attempt is what it needs - sometimes for your own piece of mind. OC.

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.
