I bought this Defiant night fighter kit at a swap meet a couple of years ago.


I fully intended to build a Defiant but every time I opened the box I lost interest. I decided time to get building something I thought of a target tug but then I saw a photo of a P94.


How hard can it be


Several false starts got me this far
 
I decided to assemble the propeller. There's no way of attaching the prop blades to the hub other than a butt joint and no markings to help with alignment so I have drilled the hub and blades to take 0.7mm brass pins. This will give me some flexibility on alignment and reinforcing when I use thin superglue to fix everything in place.
 
The piece of black plasticard will provide a solid base to build up the spine of the fuselage. I need to let the joint dry hard so I can shape it to the other fuselage half. Only a bit of shaving but need a solid base to work on.
