Looks great Joe....

One of the best scratch work which I've ever seen

That's really great!

I agree! Astounding work!

Thanks Wayne, Gino, Scott , Nige, Seb, Hakan, Mauro and Edson. It is a fun build and plan on a few more.

Hisham that would be pretty cool!




Wouldn’t be the first Rich.

Happy Modeling,
Joe

I made some progress and getting closer to painting…which I’m hoping to do on Monday.

Fire extinguishers



Side X-Ray panels



Dry fitted…



Hydraulic arm that lifts panels up and down.



And the last photos show the X-Ray panels installed. I also started the wiring that needs finishing. I also made the X-Ray panels to be functional (moving up & down)















Happy Modeling,
Joe

Fantastic work as always Joe, thanks for the update!


cheers

Just keeps getting better!

Hisham

modelling at its finest.

Fantastic work Joe ! the attention to the smallest detail is amazing..the wiring on the rear of the body , and the x-ray panels is great. eagerly waiting further updates!

Jeff

Damn Joe that Looks TERRIBLE!! Where did you learn to build stuff, at legoland? Just kidding man, Looks awesome as usual. Can't wait until you figure out how to make a scratchbuilt model that will actually shoot it's gun, drive around, start its motor.....

Looks great man, what was next for you again??



J

Thanks guys I‘m just about finished with her, all that's left are the mirrors, wiper blade and reflectors. The reflectors won’t go until it’s painted.

I do however have to give a big shout out to Rob “18brovo” Skipper who helped me out tremendously. Rob shared with me some great photos…thanks Rob!!!

Happy Modeling,
Joe

what can I say that nobody else has said??

nothing, it has to be amongstr, if not the best I have ever seen.

What are you doing for the wheels??

paul

I’m calling this finished, well the building portion at least. Next is the painting and weathering. I just have a few interior detail to work out, I’ll post photos of the cockpit later. I had some request that I show some close-up photos…

















































More to follow…

Happy Modeling,

Here’s a peek with a coat of paint, the color is a mixture of Tamiya’s Buff & Deck Tan with a few drops of Flat white.
