DH Midge-Singled Engined Comet

[RAFF-35]

You could be very careful and try and do a bit of strategic glueing 

[Captain Canada]

Ya that's only the first coat and no primer so I can scrape off a wee bit here and there to add some details.

[KiwiZac]

Cool! BoB camo looks so good on that airframe.

And I must say I like Midge.

[Captain Canada]

Thanks Zac !

I'm going to add a few bits from the spares bod to the nose, and fill in the holes under the wing. With the l/g layout and wing cord there is more than enough room for a pair or three .303's in each wing.

[Captain Canada]

Up on her feet ! I used the 'in-flight' bits from the Airfix Spit, and added new oleos and wheels from the spares bin. Added some bits to the engine and drilled out some wing guns. Lots of fiddly paint to do still, then decals and weathering.

[Captain Canada]

Defo going to change those gear covers. For one thing the just look wrong, and secondly, they nowhere near match the actual cutouts ! What was I thinking 

[NARSES2]

Great nose job Capt  It's starting to get difficult to see her parentage. It's only those wings really

[Captain Canada]

Thanks Chris ! You're right, it is all in the wings now eh ? I forgot to mention that I did end up using the open option from the Airfix Gladiator. Made it too easy as I didn't have to match up and edges or widths, yet still looks the part

It does skipper. Must admit the more I look at her my brain goes Dweotine D.520 ? Put her in French markings and you'd fool some 

[Captain Canada]

Thanks guys. I touched up a bit of the paint last night and removed the offending landing gear doors. Didn't get as far as I had wanted but maybe this afternoon
