Re: Medic's Prowler
I may pass on the wing fold. They don't come close to fitting. I'll check with the exhausts attached.

Re: Medic's Prowler
Yeah, that was an odd one. It had a T shaped part the would pull out a bit, then rotate 90* so you could then fold the wings to the rear. The Avenger and Revell’s 1/32 Wildcat had a hinge set up that was much more like those on the real aircraft.tempestjohnny wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2024 3:15 am And it didn't take long for the fold mechanism on the,Wildcat and Hellcat to snap

Re: Medic's Prowler
I've made a lot of progress on sanding and filling the Prowler. The fuselage and one of the wings are almost done. It's looking a lot better than I expected. A lot of that has to do with using Ammo's sanding sticks. For me they have been a game changer.

When all else fails, use the kit parts.

Looking good, Mike
