Thanks guys...

Just got home from work... Gotta check the Board and then Im back on the 109, sprinting towards the finishline...

 

[lesofprimus]

Got a good bit done last night..... The weathering and Matte Coat have been completed, and some of the fiddly parts are now on, including the gear....

Still need alittle bit here and there, and also the canopy, and radio antenna and mast, then Ill be done.....

 

[Wurger]

Cool.

 

[109ROAMING]

[lesofprimus]

Really looks the part now its all dirty, well done Dan

 

[lesofprimus]

Appreciate it fellas.....

 

[Wayne Little]

Sweet Dan!

 

[lesofprimus]

Well, gettin real close now.... All the small bits are glued on and drying... The 3 piece canopy has been masked and sprayed 3 coats, now drying waiting for gloss coat...

I wanted to prop the canopy open, but there is no mounting assembly to do this, and its too late for scratch building anything, so we'll see what happens when I can handle them...

And then finally, the antenna wire... Ive tried my hand at stretching sprue and it seems to have gone fairly well, surprise surprise.... I tried to drill a hole in the rudder to drop it into, but the damn pin vise didnt grab it.... Gonna try something else....

The waiting right now is tough to suffer through...

 

[lesofprimus]

And we're done.........

 

[Airframes]

I'm sure it looks good Dan, but with this feckin' net problem, I can't open the pics!

 

[lesofprimus]

Im pretty happy with my first attempt at a small ass little baby 1/48th scale model....

 

[Airframes]

So is it 1/144 th scale next then? (Duck! Incoming Herring!!!)

 

[lesofprimus]

Not frickin likely Terry.....

 

[Lucky13]

Remember, it's 1/72 between them fellas! Awesome crate Brother! Well f*cking done!
