And the work continued..... Aires way to replace the kits part is not a good idea, I think it can't be done on that way and to look as it should, so I had to remove almost half of the kit and rebuild it from styrene and use the aires replacement parts as the starting point. Of course lots of details lost....

The intake is complicated as much as possible, it has two halves, longitudinally, lots of putty and sanding on a very inaccessible place, not to mention the bad connection of the intake with the fuselage. Here the only upgrade I made is the cutting of the hasegawas inake end and made a new one from styrene and some p.e leftover to simulate the first row of the blades of the engine, becouse of the size of the intake it will be visible

After endless hours of putty and sanding, and to be honest after a longer brake I continued the work on my A7.... With the fuselage nearly finished I started to work on landing gears. While the wheel wells are nearly perfect, no update, or to be precise, there is some but it's nearly not worth even to mention it, so I had to do some scratch. Here is the beginning.

To relax, I continued to work on the wheel bays, some more hydraulic tubes added, all the connection are soldered, first I made the proper shape and then installed it in the weel bays

This is looking very great!

The inlet reminds me of a friend who was a mechanic in an A-7 squadron who liked to take naps in the intake...... :-eek

...so I started some other things to do. First the pylons, some leftovers from Jimmy photo etched parts, wire and some soldering again, and only one detail from the Eduard set....
