well guys for the past few years real life kicked in and I spent too much time drawing for others plus working a real job. I finally decided to work on 1 of my 2 life long bucket list projects. the first is a 3rd scale Grumman F3F I had started then sent what I had to Jerry Bates as he was abt to work on one for a private client so I will wait on those plans then enlarge them.
the second is the one I will be working on here a 1/4 scale P-38J-LO Lightning which I will show here from start to finish IE design stage through build.
I have access to 22k of factory drawings for it and will be using Leroy Weber's superscale drawings as the base drawings and Solidworks 2016 for drawing them up.
It will be fairly slow due to the complicated plane that it is. I had started once but after getting ahold of the factory drawings etc found several dimensions were off so will be starting from scratch.
I posted the Weber drawings and the factory drawings I downloaded so far on my site you can get them from the below links
