Stores and undercarriage now added. Due to me getting the dihedral of the wings wrong it sits on it's tail. I also had to cut the rear landing gear down to size so that the out riggers would touch the ground.

Here's some pics of her as she is now. Just need to give her a couple of cotes of Satin Cote and we can call this finished.

After two cotes of Satin Cote here's the finished article.









All in all a very enjoyable build of one of my favourite aircraft. Only problems were with the wing dihedral and the poor kit decals.

A first rate job on the straight OOB version.  It could be on the box top.
