cool, is this a conversion from an E to a G using a combination of kits or are scratch building stuff for it too ?
Btw the rudder is is from E and the F used it too but I think the G versions were slightly different and the hinge went from top to bottom of the fin. Any cool stuff, one to watch 🙂

Hi Choppa! Thanks for the kudos. These are the leftover G fuselage and wings from the Eduard Royal Class kit. The parts you see are just the majority of bits and pieces I laid out that would/could be used. For the rudder I used a spare Fujimi part.

I wonder if the early G's had that rudder ? I know the F definitely had it too
Always great when you can pull a few scraps together to make something new, I admire your style 🙂
The wing tips look like they are from a Spitfire 🙂

Haha yes the are reshaped ICM Spitfire wingtips. 😉 Good eye there. They get the job done. The Koster vac tips were too thick to use actually. From what I saw yes the early Gs had that style of rudder. My build will probably upset a few purists as it's 'very close' but not 100%. Yet for me it's an exercise to keep my skillset fresh and recycle parts into a kit. My mantra is 'No kit left behind'. Thanks again for your kind words, Choppa.
