eh up all.
i`ve been doing a bit more on my build,i`ve blackened the inside of the model and got the walkway in and the 2 inner ramp walls,i`ve put on 2 images if ya look at the first 1 you can see that i`ve cut the front of the walkway down shorter than the back,this is because i wish to get a gun turret station in there but i think i`m gonna struggle but until i get on it i dont know if i get either over it!...or around it some how..anyhow here are 2 images of my progress,hope ya like cheers peza...(this is me at the mo:facepalm)

eh up all.
i`ve been back on the old buzzard this week.
first off i made up my 16 LED`s for the landing lights.
next i made some caps for the top of the lights which were made from styrene and sprayed up with silver car spray,but before i mounted them i had to level up the tubes that the lights sit in on the model,at first i was using my mini files but it was taking too long,so i ended up using my dremel with a circular disk(had to be very careful not to over do it)
so now they are mounted i started making up some tubing cut up into rings for the cable to sit in.
i`m thinking of doin the wiring for these in a loop if there`s any trouble with one LED it wont wipe out all the lights after the damaged one?
and finally i`ve been in my shed lookin for cable and the old hoover got it!!
i`ve put some images on,i hope ya like cheers peza:cheers
