I understand the debate people have about paint chipping from certain painted areas of Japanese aircraft, but these are chipped. I’ll try to figure a way to add it to the blog. Thanks your your question. <br />All the best,<br />Kevin’s Kevin Burkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00105924343819880003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5748156690521830936.post-77878998872181707342020-09-10T07:21:13.165+01:002020-09-10T07:21:13.165+01:00The great work.

The method of re-creating the radio hatch was very interesting. I am going to remember that for future reference.<br /><br />Wind SwordsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5748156690521830936.post-1085264779028514062020-09-08T18:34:35.371+01:002020-09-08T18:34:35.371+01:00Thanks Dan,
