Take care of that real business karl...

Ok bit more done, this kit is not great, poor fit in areas and mine has a warped wing

 

[Wurger]

Looking good though.

I see what you mean about the fit problems Karl. A bit (OK, a lot !) of filler and it should be fine.
Got to find some energy and get on with my Jet Provost !

 

[Gnomey]

Nice work so far Karl!

 

[turbo]

It's looking good though Karl

 

[Crimea_River]

Yep, agree with that.

Thanks guys.
Hope to have the motivation to close those gaps today.

Uuugggghhhh !

I hate puttying gaps......

Waiting for the milliput to dry so i can hit it with a sanding stick.

As a builder of Hobbycraft I feel your pain Karl. Moving along though

 

[Robert Porter]

Looking great! Where do the propellors go?

 

[Wayne Little]

Keep at it Karl...

 

[T Bolt]

Too bad about the fit problems, but it's looking pretty good so far

Ok been ages since i worked on this.
This will be my first model painted with an airbrush :gulp:
So i built a spray booth .

Fancy, I just use a rectangular cardboard box about .75m x .50m x .25m. I remove the bottom flap and bend the sides and top flap outward about 45 degrees or more. I use the side flaps to test the spray from the airbrush.
What is the purpose of those Styrofoam blocks, bottom and back?

Mike.

I had them laying around so i thought i would use them, i did think if i needed to hang a model i could stick the wire through the foam or also stick in cocktail sticks if i needed to raise the model that way.

Am also thinking of keeping one side clean and using it as a photo booth to improve my build pictures.

 

[Wurger]

Sounds good.

Airbrush, woo-hoo! Can't wait...
