1/72 Italeri AC-130H Spectre Finished

I know it's been a while since I've updated this.  I'm hoping to get back to the bench tomorrow afternoon.  I've had my hands full with the new puppy, then came down with the flu which I've had for nearly 2 weeks.  Finally feeling better, and told hubby he's on puppy duty tomorrow! 

Finally have some progress to report!  I made a big mess with the putty.  Seems the more neat I try to be the bigger the mess I make.  Oh well. 

Cargo and landing gear doors.

Wings!

Hopefully I will have time to do some more after dinner tonight.

Engine nacelles are on.  Hopefully I'll be able to put a coat of paint on her tomorrow.

The Spectre is finally painted. 

Props on.

Underside fiddly bits.

I'll get started on the decals in the next few days.

Looks great, Keyda!

Got the decals done today. 

The lines are such a pain!  Took me well over an hour.

Top done.

Good job Keyda, both build and display! There may be more space in my Museum than I thought, I hadn't considered the walls yet! LOL!

Well done, Keyda.

Nice build, nice set up!

Thank you everyone!  I actually have to give credit to fermis for the idea of hanging them on the wall.  He posted a few pics of how he has some planes displayed.  I have to say it works very well.  They don't take up a whole bunch of space that way.  I have those 3 C-130's, a B25 Mitchell, a Fury jet, and a C-5 Galaxy all displayed that way.  I just put a small eyelet screw in the wall, and hang them with fishing line.  It's a bit nerve racking sometime, cause I actually dropped the B25, and had to do some repairs.  Fortunatley nothing cracked, it just came apart where it was glued. 

And the dust just scoots right on by, too!

Glad I caught up to this,will make a nice reference when I break out mine. A real top notch job,despite all the distractions.

Thank you!  It has it's imperfections, but doesn't everything, lol. 

Beautiful model!
