hi guys,
done the wing now and fitted it, cannot claim it is accurate, i have no clear image of the underside, this was done using the seethru drawing have have.
Take notes gentlemen. This is how you turn a sow's ear into a silk purse. Mind you, some aircraft are so ugly that the only reason you can look at them is for the shock value. It's like a train wreck. You can't help but rubberneck.

very nice pal, my firebrand's almost done just gotta find time to add the details:
very nice and interesting subjects![]()
great Firebrand,
think we should rename this thread as "the good, the bad the ugly"
anyway here is what i am doing now, the undercarriage.
as you can see i am drawing it vertical, because it is easier, then i will rotate it to the proper angle.

here is the next side view, with gear down, flaps extended, bombay doors open, cowl flaps open and canopy slid backi intend to fold far side wing and extend arrester hook, then change sides and show the full wing fold mechanism.
