Looks like you got this one under control, looks good. I’ll be watching to see it come along. Did you have any trouble with warped pieces? The floor of mine was quite twisted.
You’ve gotten further along than I have with my C-47. I wish I was that the stage you are now, Painting and weathering are my favorite part.

there weren't any warping to my knowledge the biggest issue was were the wings joined i wasn't able to get it to join as smoothly as i wanted.. biggest issue i had to deal with on this build was my aztek airbrush being clogged

i fixed the pics on my last reply. the rest are small as i wasn't sure if there was a size limit on this forum and i didn't want to make it too big. anyway hope you enjoy the pics this plane was quite an interesting build and look forward to a b-24 build in the near future
