Nice! What are the orange lines on the seat? I assume they aren't seatbelts?

@ OttovonLindberg that is supposed to be the shoulder harness, I need to check if I have some stuff for improvement of this part.

Got a shoulder harness decal, looks much better.
Fuselage complete, just a bit putty and sanding was needed.

There will be quite a lot of putty and sanding required at the engine nacelles. Many gaps and bad fitting parts combined with a very inaccurate instructionsheet need to be corrected.

Hey Felix, just in case you don't know, you can put captions directly on the pictures in scalemates

Bola complete and started with the noseglass, but fitting issues are going on.

Started painting.
Revell primer applied and working with preshading on this model.
Camoflage will be done with AK Real Colors, underside RLM65 (early) completed.

The big paintjob is done RLM70 and RLM71 on the upper side and also the underside of the leading edges. Prop spinners in colorful white and red giving good contrast.

Torpedoes completed with some modification of the tail and used Vallejo Metallic Colors for the first time.

Beautiful torpedoes, did they come with the kit? How did you mask the prop spinners so perfectly?
12 January 2021, 16:12

@ OttovonLindberg yes they come with the H-6 kit, you have to choose between two SD500 bombs and the torpedoes. But the tail is to big to fit under the belly and in Norway they used a tail section which I modified.
The prop spinners were just sprayed in white and then used normal masking tape together with patience.

Finished, experienced some difficulties with silvering and the clear varnish, but I'm happy with the final result.

Congratulations, a very handsome model 👍 👍 👍 I'm fighting with the P1, the division of the sprues is too much for even Google maps 🙂

@ Jens, I had the same with the sprues, most time I was searching for the next parts.

It looks incredible! Worth the wait to see the final product. I particularly love those torpedo bombs(?) they're beautiful
