Good stuff Geo. So can you swipe your Skyhawk and get onto the mine? Great news about the shift change. Should cut down on your travel time quite a bit. Might be worth starting a model in camp too for those 7 long winter nights.

Great solution Geo and a change to 7 on 7 off, I'm assuming days. Definitely more realistic and manageable.

How about "I Will Survive". Trying to get the best fit with the frontal/wingal join. They will be on tonight. Thanks for the support guys.

You're doin' well Geo, keep at it mate! As we say in Hungarian modelling circles 'csiszi csiszi csiszi....'
('Csiszi', pronounced 'chissy', is slang for csiszolás (sanding) and a pun - sounds like the noise made by sand paper when in use

I like that Evan. I like to use wet/dry sandpaper as it can be moistened with tears.

Wings are attached. Mud and grind session tomorrow on the areas indicated.(Note the RAF WW2 641ATH font ) It's worse than it looks.
And now to sleep.

You'll get it right in the end Geo. And it can't be anywhere near as bad as the Tornado and Buccaneer !!

Can't be all that bad. Or can it ? Keep at it, Geo, it'll work out.

No it is that bad :S I can't find a example of such a huge epic fail as hobbycraft kits, when I do I'll post one
but its like they purposely find whatever can't fit, or something thats out of line in their kits and then they make it like so.

Is that 'csiszi csiszi csiszi....' I hear or the gnashing of teeth!!

OK, I've only experienced four Hobbycraft kits, and all purchased when they first came on the scene - but I haven't found any fit problems with any of them. In fact, it's been the exact opposite. Now their instruction sheets and decals are another thing all together !!
