He 111x , America Bomber ?

[killnoizer]

After a week i found time to continue the job ,  for a good fit of the wings at the fuselage i have to spread them ( the He111 wings  are NOT thin ) , and try this with some simple parts of the sprues glued inside .  And also the engine nacelles are fixed and some more little things done . I decide to re-design them a bit ...   so the blades should become one of the latest jobs on this build to avoid damage .

These things need to dry properly before the next step , but the backside half of the wing profile fits very well on the Heinkel without a putty massacre .

And I think about the landing gear , if I want to show it grounded , the backwheel place is closed and the bay for a front wheel must be cutted new ...

This looking really good!! Can't wait till it finishes!

Engines are in progress , this is one ready with the intake made, and the X parts will be the rotating rings with the props mounted on

The shape of the wings is ready , i have glued some sheet inside to keep it , after one day i can ad more sheet from the outside and sand it down  .

Isn't it

Funny fact , the complete thing is in balance only with the main landing gear 😃 .

I will ad some skids and keep it that way  .

Just be aware that when you add the cockpit glazing to the front it will upset that balance.

Yes , I have checked that detail and it would be fine !  Now the balance tends to the back , just a little bit , with the props and cockpit it will be perfect plus the big skids are more than 60 mm long .    Thank you for reminding !

Intakes and underside in progress

Man, this is so cool and very inspirational     you really have made it look natural and that is an impressive feat in my books.

Nicely done! Making good progress. 

Is it my eyes, or in the first picture of the end of the port wing root does the inner nacelle look a little tilted down, compared to the outer?
Maybe due to the wedges altering the stance?
And is the starboard one similarly affected?

Or is it all in my (admittedly warped and fevered) imagination? 

[killnoizer]

That is realy exact , both  inner engines are deeper than the both outside . They build it that way 😆 .

There's a funky sci-fi vibe radiating off this beast!
