So the buttoning up process is underway.
The gussets for the exhaust (?) flashing is a bit klunky,
so I'm modifying it.
Just got the hoist blue tacked in place to glue on the supports.
Engine will go in for the final piping!
Arrrrrrrgh.
Looking very good Bill,
Making me feel guilty, as I should get back to my conversion of the old Revell kit, into a RAF SAR Wessex I started some years back !
Then when you think you've done enough.....
you juuuuust haaaaave to open one more picture!
So the main gear strut, could not for the life of me figure how it's supposed to attach.
Then I see this!!!!!
And just have to do this!
The backing plate for brakes and strut mounting........
Arrrrrrgh.
So it goes.
Thanks Wurger.......
So I have been to my "spray booth"
a lazy susan, homemeade by Someone, 2 bucks at Vinnies.
Managed to get ONE of my many inop airbrushes to "work" so I got the orange down
MM1988 engine gray all over.................... successsssssss.
Just have to mask the top of the tail to go gray Wheels can get attached.
I'm on the downturn!!!!
So I have finally painted the tail....
or should I say pulled out half my hair Masking this bugger.
No more heliocapeters!
Clearcoat, decals, some odds n ends to attach.
And the Engine!!!!!
