Neptune aviation have a lot on contract because of this seasons possible horrible outcome.

But anyways, Still keep looking back out that WIP.

It's sometimes hard to balance all that needs to be done in the day and find time to fit in your hobbys.

No smoothing added yet untail all detales are cut out. I am working on the Nellas at the moment geting everything shaped and cut out. Still need to refine the two windows at the front as they are not shaped right.

I know its a little early but dont forget the jet engine pods under the wing for this model. Awsome work too.

...and the "stinger" tail delete please. That is if he's working on the P-2V7 and not the SP-2H

I plan on building all models, but soon as I get most of the main parts built. Its a little slower than I would like as Home projects are geting in the way of my progress but I almost have the engins complete amd am working on the wings now and will also work on the jet pods. I will keep posting WIP pics as more gets done.

Hi Bill,

Do you think you could keep the stinger tail and also do a P-2V Neptune while your at it. It looks easy to convert (But I know it never is) so please......
