That is just so impressive!

Ok, now i have set up the MGFF cannons in the wings but they are not fixed yet. also have fitted a short piece of Brass tube and flushed it with the wing edge so when I fit the Pitot tube it will slide into place easily.

Next project is to get the wing to fuselage joins right....as you can see the fit is less than 'perfect'...however it is a limited run kit so some fit issues are to be expected....on with the fix!

 

[Wurger]

Looking good. But some work on these wing roots is needed though.

 

[Wayne Little]

Would you like to take of them my good friend!

 

[Wurger]

No pains, no gains .... But I wish I could help.

 

[Wayne Little]

It's the thought that counts.....Thanks!

looks great

Nice Wayne!

 

[Gerry]

Will you close the gap with plastic first or go straight to filler? What filler would you use for these tight small gaps?

 

[Airframes]

Looking good Wayne, and that gap won't be a problem for you, I'm sure.

 

[vikingBerserker]

Nice!

 

[Crimea_River]

Good luck with those gaps Wayne, although no doubt your skills will preclude the need for luck.

Cannon looks great and I like the brass sleeve idea which has been duly logged away in the memory bank. Also looks like that wing join is going to even tax your capabilities..................for a couple of seconds.

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks fellas....yeah it took a bit more than a few seconds.....about 2 hours on and off.....and to answer Gerry's question,first I added some plasticard strips to both wingroots and glued these in place...the rest filled with superglue followed by accelerator, then filing and sanding and repeating!

here it is almost done, tomorrow I will tackle the underside of the nose area, there is a slight step to address too....

it really is amazing how well you sort out those gaps Wayne

 

[Catch22]

Looks great Wayne!

 

[Wayne Little]

it really is amazing how well you sort out those gaps Wayne

Thanks Cory and Karl.....The proof will be in a light coat of paint...to check just how well I did sort out those gaps...time will tell!

 

[Crimea_River]

Coming along nicely.

 

[A4K]
