Re-purposing a part started E-3 Kit, some minor updating to make E-3/B707 parts into E-8 like modifying engine turbo compressor hoods to suit.

Some progress, started to add the etch and white metal antennas. Decided to scratch build the forward cabin intake and the supplied one was too big.

On the rather large shelf of doom at the moment. 3 P-3s and and P-8 are taking up my time at the moment.

salvaged from the "shelf of doom", guess Most of us have one of those. IT Looks great ..the break from the build helped huh ?

Thanks Mona, yes the break did help. When I took it down I had wondered why I stopped so close to the finish. After working on it again I did have issues with the wing tip antennas and decals, so the break was welcomed.

Brother Ray! Another masterpiece! Well done, sir. Where do you find the room to display all these large 1:72 aircraft?

Great transformation. Rarely seen as a model but also lovely as result itself.
