This is a test-fit of the model.
The vac tailplanes are visible.Those made by Aurora were too thin and cannot be used. Instead I used those from the Combat Models vac, which in fact, is made over this plastic kit but has the advantage of a higher thickness.

Anyway they were too small and have been enlarged in heigth.


 

 

 

Main wheels visible in this pic are not the final ones. However, the front landing gear wheel is the one I actually used. It's the main wheel of a Monogram B-25, in 1/48th.
Gear legs are made of metal, the metal struts provided by Aurora, covered by plastic rods of various size.

 

 

The model from above. It's still far from the end!!
