Lost Cosmonauts 5,183 Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 I made something of a start on two kits which aren’t officially available yet - still waiting on test builds finishing so no harm in raiding my stock Avro 698 and Vickers Swallow assembly starts and but a day or so of glue setting and they are in primer 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lost Cosmonauts 5,183 Posted August 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Avro 698 got hauled out of the to-do pile and I did a smidge of sanding and installed the bomb and wheel bays 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lost Cosmonauts 5,183 Posted September 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 Avro is ongoing - wheels are in, cockpit fitted and some filling and sanding has happened Then paint - camo grey A portion of sausages then green I need to make a decision about the bomb bays open/closed and then mask off for the underside 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
