Magnificent job of converting to a G1,2,3,4? Would love to see the steps involved. I'm thinking of doing the Guillows 400 109B as a detailed B. Where did you get the markings? |

Is that the kit canopy? |

Thanks, my friends. This is my pattern model. It is actually a 1/48 Hasegawa kit. Paint and markings depict one flown by Gunther Rall. |

Jerry, this is a G-2. The G-6 will have under wing cannons. I will have to scratch build the canopy. Kit canopy has curved top and all subsequent marks had flat surfaces. The nose cowling will also have to be scratch built, along with supercharger intake. |

Happy Birthday, Poppy! |

The kit rounded canopy is the early style which fits with the huge scoop of the B series which is what the Guillows kit is. You really have your work cut out for you to make the Guillows into a G-6. Please take lots of pictures detailing what you do because a lot of us beginners will be interested. I've probably built a dozen of the Hasegawa plastic E to G series kits, they are awsome kits. Good luck!! And happy medicare day. |
