Well friends!
I start test build of Murph's Models Northrop BT-1. The first version of famous time war SBD Dauntless. Beside Advanced design at the time, the BT-1 is a weak performance and have some problems of handling. 54 airframes are produced of early version BT-1 and after problems the project are redesign for BT-2, but at the time Northrop bought by Douglas Aircraft and the new version is called SBD-1 and 2.
Murph's Models presents a unique paper model at this time of this plane, the scale is 1/40 but for my test as always I reduced for 1/100.
The model have three versions: VB-6 Squadron, USS Enterprise, CAG Airplane of USS Yorktown, both used in late 30's and hack aircraft in blue grey scheme war time.
The model is a typical desing from Aaron fuselage made with formers and separate tabs. Textures are great with precise colors. The engine is a simulation like Fiddlers Geen style.
For me the major difficults is in wing fairings and fuselage machine gun recess area.
I start the build from wing central formers note I cut the fuselage gluing area for better adesion of fuse because is a fusion with central wing section with fuselage, the cut is for easy gluing because form a semi-rigid section, better for adjusting,
All white edges are painted with acrylic colors, for blue gray I made a mixture...
The wing need a precise gluing in this case the tabs are in outside section of wings I start the build for this section alignment with central formers...
After external sections dry I gluing central wing, each by each section, for preserve the cross section of wing.
The results at the moment, note the gray area is need a cut of adjusting the fuselage.
Soon new updates.
