Wow!!! Very ambitious. I haven't been around lately so I'll say Welcome to the boards, even if I'm a couple months late doing so!!

Small Update but had to share. Installed the Wing Landing Gear and All Gear Doors today. Added 3 open A/C Pack exhaust doors to the belly with some thin stock styrene.
Next up, decal engine cowls, paint the leading edge flaps and install both engines an L/E flaps. Oh yes, the windshield too! Might just have this finished by the end of March

I am loving the detail you are throwing into this Jack!

The engines and leading edge Variable Camber Flaps and Krueger Flaps have been installed. Took some time and a bit of trimming, but it was well worth it. Still more to go before decals are applied. It's getting there.

Well, I got even more creative today and added some "corrosion inhibiting compound" ( an enamel light rust colored wash from AK Interactive paints). Eventually I'll decal this beast and call it quits. Just another OCD moment

Ok, decals are complete. Some minor touch up, wiring to the base and she's done. Here's a preview before I post the final shots in the Completed Models section.

Brilliant!! I do like the corrosion on the slats and stuff. Looks real to me!
