Thanks guys. She's on her legs...barely. With the clear parts, it becomes more stable. I have to add the gear covers , antenna and pitot tube so I'll see what happens later. If you build one, don't be afraid to add a wee bit more weight.

She's looking the biz Geo, and thanks for the tip on extra weight - I'll be converting my F3 to a F4, using a fairly heavy, one piece resin wing and engines, so I'll need to remember this!

[Wayne Little]

Looking good!

It's looking really nice George! I always have trouble mixing colors. I guess you either have the nack for it or you don't. I don't. You just do the best you can and if it's close enough call it good and don't worry about it.

 

[Catch22]

Nice Geo.

 

[Crimea_River]

Looking very good.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Sure looks good George, it's an incredible little model, it falls together so well, one could almost build it in a day.

 

[fubar57]

Repainted the fuselage band with the Pollyscale Sky...

The color difference with the decals must have been caused by the blue backing paper as they sure brightened up on the model. Having said that, the decals are very opaque as you can't see any difference on the decals where they cover both top colors......odd.

[JKim]

Great paint and decal work Geo!

 

[fubar57]

Thanks guys. I'm calling this one done. It stands on its own as long as I don't look at it. Finished shots shortly. On to the F.3.............

Nice one Geo.

Mine is the same, nose wheel lifts every time a truck or bus goes past the house !

Wife thinks it's a ghost though !!!!

 

[fubar57]

Thanks Karl. For the F.3, I'll superglue a few lead pellets to the kit supplied weight.
