The glass nose contains a frame which supports the 20mm cannon. Valom gives you a PE frame. I want it 3D because the frame is made of tubes. In comes Evergreen! 

And it looks a lot better 

Masking the millions of windows. Tamiya tape on, pressing it with a toothpick, then running the rims with a blunt knife, and finally with a sharp knife. 

A little more tubing and armament in the tail section 

Placing the radial engine into the cowling by drilling from the outside into 3 cilinders and fixating it with Evergreen rod (1mm) 

Drilling 0,8mm holes for the exhaust stacks from the outside through the exhaust collector ring into the cilinders 

Using 0,75mm rod for exhaust stacks 

Disassembled the engine and painted the interior of the cowling camouflage brown, the exhaust collector ring aluminium 

Finished engine. Valom added a beautiful little resin engine. I only added the protection tubing for the push rods (0,75mm black) 

Engines assembled. Nice seemless exhaust! 

Primed and ready for some camo 

First color is Hataka C087 brown, mixed with 20% white. Left side is finished, right side needs a last layer 

Black basing in different stages 

Colors are on! Hataka C074, C087 and C246. All mixed with 20% white.I thought the beige color was too sandy, so I filtered with light gray untill I was satisfied. 

The orange war triangels are on. This wraps up the general painting. The only decals for the plane are aircraft registration numbers (855), which are next. 

Main wheels with brass axles 

Propeller hub with brass axle and blades with aluminium attachment tubes 

Finally finished
