Oh dio mio to say it in gentlemanly language; fuselage assembly of MPC B-17G is a bugger. Specially upper turret.
Deja vu,,, yup was SOS last time. With 3 hrs Exacto trimming and emery boarding and fitting re-fitting ad nauseam, old memories came to roost. Now its time for pin vise cuz is no hole where directions promise there is. Broke part of plastic over cockpit - another deja vu.
Something I wanna check is cutting off chin turret and gluing fixed (non-rotating) to Revell B-17F to designate B-17G. Its rivet finish good match for Lindberg wings like MPC is.
Appears polystyrene dragon is nearly slain. Am continuing. Keeping Revell option at hand.
Is a newer Revell B-17G kit have not looked at.
