Brake flap.

Scaled from a 1/72 scale model. Templates make it go fast.

Next up, brake flaps.

Of course. These look far better than the cast pieces. In fact, this entire build looks great and the attention to the detailing is superb. Adding the driveshaft is an inspired touch.

Thank you, David. Unfortunately due to my recessed gear bay mods, the cast resin pieces were too short. I tried to extend them with styrene tube and white putty, urggh.. but the line up for struts, just didn't look right. With your approval of course, I will offer the extra set of cast resin pieces you made for me to another builder of a Mossie or P-39.

Lovely, lovely work. This is going to be stunning!

"Uni-pod" landing gear?
moostang51, Image # 2081928 Jan 11 06:05

Front landing gear bay installed.

Thanks. Rivets are made with a push pin on the back side of .10 styrene using an aluminum ruler as a guide. Once painted and clear coated (future acrylic polish) a watery slush mix of umber, black and some dawn dish-washing detergent will be applied and then wiped off when dry for weathering. Chicken foot dials, knobs, and switches etc. will be touched up by color if necessary.

Nice detail. Rivets are cool. CA?

Almost ready for base paint. Will try to match a close "Bell" green. Will need it for wheel bays also. Where the hell is my color wheel?

The cockpit bling is looking very nice. The drive shaft is a very nice touch

Filled in recessed exhaust manifold, and front gear bay started.

I can hear it now, "If you get any of that fingernail polish smelling stuff on that new oak table we will be shoppping for a new one today!" This is the voice of experience! So cold outside I moved indoors too.

Eyes need a little help. 2x magnifier allows better viewing of resin part cleanup.

Details starting. Modified exhaust and Front landing gear bay. Resin parts courtesy of DD. Thanks, David.
