My 1/72 scale aircraft

B-25 update…

Built the main wings…

Then I test fit them on the fuselage…

I think I am going to finish the fuselage and everything that goes on it and add the wings afterwards. I can build them as sub assemblies to be glued on later. There will be no putty needed as the joint to the fuselage is excellent.

B-25 Update…
A lot of work on the fuselage assembly…
Paint, guns, etc…
I decided I wanted to paint it the sand color the aircraft stationed in North Africa were painted.

I will continue to add guns and canopy frames, etc. then I can add decals and clear coat. I will build the main wings as separate assemblies to be added to the fuselage later.

A. Nice color, Dean. And the seams came out very nice.
