Hi
actually started my Project X project....
Special Hobby 1/72nd He P1078A yesterday.

Didn't do much but the wings are on the fuselage halves. Had to do it this way as the join is flush fit so it needed reinforcing with brass rod.

Will post progress pics soon.

Of course the cockpit floor and rear wall are too wide and will need a bit of adjustment.
This seems to be a common feature of Special Hobby kits...oh well part of the lesser joys of modelling...lol.

Anyone else got stuck in??/

Cheers
Peter
:-H :-)

Hehehe... I've started mine months ago. :-) A little bit of sanding and painting and I'm all done. Will wait for the start of Project X before I continue.

Hi Davy...
