42-451 is the aircraft for which markings are provided in the kit

Lateral and lower camera ports added by drilling out the required holes, attaching masking tape to a piece of clear plastic, punching out the transparencies and fixing them from the inside with Kristal Klear

Struggling a bit with the cockpit; the part constituting the rudder pedal assembly is too short, and the very small pictures in the instructions not very helpful either…

Additional information: Frowned upon by many, I use Revell Aqua paints and like them. Unfortunately, the range is not very complete. My imitation of RAF Interior Green is Revell Aqua Olive Green toned down with White. I'm quite pleased with the result (comes across a bit dark in the photos).

You wrote in the project description: "The shape of the „1" in the serial number is wrong." What is the height of the number? Should I try to cut masks?

Thanks, I may get back to you. It's 5 mm high. They cut off the upper right-hand corner of the „1" so that it is angled at 45 deg. It should be a 90 deg angle. I'm contemplating „repairing" that corner it with small section of a white stripe from TL Decals. But I'll cross that bridge when I come to it …

Hmm, 5mm is very small for a cutting plotter. Could be tried but I cannot promise anything. Maybe your decal solution will work better.

Kenneth
Yes, I have my doubts too, having seen what plotters can do. We will see, but many thanks for the offer nonetheless.

Don't worry about your speed Kenneth. There is no deadline. All that matters is that you are satisfied with the result and enjoy the time spend. BTW, you are much faster than I am.
So far it's locking very nice.

I don't think speed is necessarily the goal Kenneth. You are also faster than me. I hope you are enjoying yourself and, as Nicolas said, that you are happy with your result. It's looking good so far.

Many thanks, Nicolas and Jennifer! I'm definitely enjoying myself, and am pleased with the resutls!

Moreno Baruffini
I can only say that I totally agree with the above! Looking good 👍

Many thanks, Moreno!

Nice looking cockpit! I built the Mk.X boxing and wondered the same thing about the floor/bulkhead fit… I probably have some spare Stoppel decals if you need a '1'.
