Unfortunately, the fit of the wing parts to the fuselage and each other is not the best, Some warping of the parts possibly.
Anyway, it may take me some time to sort this out. Watch this space!

You have posted a helicopter photo on Martin thread as well.

Lovely detail work.

Obviously the extra glass of Chardonnay has had some effect. How that happened I don't know but I'll rectify it, sorry Martin.

Hi All,
I don't like this heat. I find it very difficult to model whilst it is so hot and humid.
Anyway, I've managed to do a little bit more on the Sea King interior.
Crew seats are now installed and painted complete with seat belt/harnesses from Wine bottle foil painted and folded to give them a bit of life. Small splashes of silver and black shading does the rest.
On the cabin seats I did the same thing, but used a different colour to the crew seats (I used mid grey). Again it takes a little time to attach all the straps and try to make them all slightly different.
Finally I have painted the liferaft which goes adjacent to the door opening.
Some pictures of the above:-
Thanks for looking.
