Another model joins the other already on my bench. This time a 1/144 Bristol Freighter. I have no drawings of the bottom view, hence picture will be used to figure out the layout of the fixed undercarriage.

Parts are mated but not glued yet. Contour sanding is still required on the fuselage.

A sneak preview. Props are done but need painting. The model is upside down while the future wax dries before the last decals are applied to the bottom of the wing. I anticipate roll out soon.

Roll out 3 July 2023. CanMilAir decals were purchased, however I did not use them. All are home made.

Catching up. Nice looking model of a real work horse aircraft.
