Peter Jenssen
-Wings are done too, no up to date pic yet though..

Es-haq Khosravi
Well done!

Peter Jenssen
Nearly time to paint..

Es-haq Khosravi
Nice job! Is the control panel oob?

Peter Jenssen
It's all oob, except for some extra fuse wire on the mud guards of the Scheuch-schlepper..

Peter Jenssen
Schlepper painted.
Looks less yellow in real life, -more sandy yellow.
For some reason the picture turned out quite lemon bright.
Wheels look too small unfortunately.. 🙁

Es-haq Khosravi
That's very nice!

Donald Medley
Nice work, to bad not in 1:48

Peter Jenssen
Thanks,
Got disappointed with the paint though. It's back in the box, a bit neglected at the moment..

Donald Medley
Where did you get that towing machine or was it scratch built?

Pavel Pinzhin
@Donald - that towing tractor actually comes in the box. Academy has quite a few airplane kits with additions of their own ground wehicles like german kubelwagen, schwimmwagen or allied willis jeep.

Donald Medley
Thanks for the info Pavel !

Peter Jenssen
That's correct.
It's part of the kit. Also part of the kit is fuselage and canopy parts to build the trainer version. It's a nice kit.
(Sorry for the late reply, I have'nt been on the forum for a while, I have been busy rigging a wooden ship model of the Cutty Sark)
