    Eduards´s 50cals aren´t molded nicely and they have no muzzle dampers, so decided to switch to the second scheme provided in this Weekend Edition, doing an aircraft with the two 20mm guns, haven´t built such version before

    did cut off the middle MG and the cannon to avoid breaking them off
    gonna add them again in the finish
