This past week I installed the nose section and masked the canopies. I then built up, detailed and installed the nacelles, cowls, and engines onto the wings. I am now working on the landing gear and adding the various details like antennas, landing gear doors, and the rest of the clear lenses for the aircraft lights. Then I can mask off the rest of the windows and start painting the base coats for the upper and lower portions of the aircraft.
On a side note my next build is going to be a commission build. The client has already sent me the model and I am doing some research and have already purchased some resin accessories. This will be an interesting build as it is kind of outside of my normal subjects. I hoping to start it in just a couple of weeks when this build is finished.
You can see all the photos and details from the start in the build log at: 1/48 PBJ-1D – B-25 Mitchell
