Great detail to look at Dean, especially at that scale.

Update…cockpit sub assembly is finished…
Here is where it goes…just sitting in place for now.
What is interesting, is the tunnel that goes under the pilots to the nose gunner area. That portion of the fuselage will be built and added after the halves are joined.
Now I am building the bomb bay…

Thank you Frank
Thanks Russ!
Update…bomb bay finished…
Moving to the next two sub assemblies…upper gunners station, and then rear gunners station.

Current progress…bomb bay assembly and cockpit assembly with front landing gear are glued in.
Now working on the gun assemblies for the rear and upper guns. As soon as I get the rear gun assembly finished, I can join the fuselage halves. The upper gun can be installed later. Once the fuselage is assembled I can start on the wings and engines.

I use Revell liquid model glue. Except on clear pieces, like canopies, where I use PVA glue like Weldbond. It won’t melt the plastic and fog it up, also it dries clear.
Looks absolutely great, wonderful painting
Thank you Adi. There is a lot to detail and I fear most of it will be hard to see once the fuselage is joined. But maybe you can see some of it due to all of the windows.
Thanks!
