@Daniel: It's interesting that you mentioned you'd have to correct the fuselage shape - it would sure require quite a correction to make it right :)) Joke aside, this will surely look nice, as the work in progress shows :-ok
@Scott: this refurbishing looks promising, and original cockpit details are prominent enough :-ok

Well yes Profa, correction were needed, but with putty. For fun I could have made the rivets, but too hard work just for fun...

Anyway, sanding is made. Now the parts are ready for painting.

I gived also a little bath to the canopy: I put it into Klir (Future is also good, Scott). Then I removed it.

Why to do that?

1) the canopy is more clear
2) the eventuals marks made by sanding, etc, disappear
3) you can use cyano without any risk that fume will cause any damage thanks to the protection gived by Klir.

May be I'm cheating a little bit for it's already built, but I wanted to share some more J-modeling with you guys after being away so much time. This japanese DC-3, or L2D2 "Tabby" was built some 8 years ago. And then people wonders about how fast time goes by...

I have an AZ Model Nakajima Type 91-I in Kwangsi markings waiting to be built. May be I'll start it before the GB is closed, but it has so many tiny, minuscule PE parts that I'm sure I'll still have it on the workbench next year :-wise

Hope you like this unusual Douglas, and keep up the good work!

We're traveling right now but I brought my "Japan Project #2" along on the trip. Tonight I assembled the major components together for a test-fit.

Here is the beginning stage of the cowling/engine/propeller mods that I'm making to the kit.
