Spent time again today filing, sanding and rescribing various points, then got distracted with some of my Mum's affairs so pics will have to wait till tomorrow guys...

Ok, some pics of the rear area where the wing joins the fuselage, before and after...got almost all the filling, filing, sanding and rescribing done now. Also redid a few seams that I wasn't happy with too.

Nice Save Wayne

Thanks Guys, the first coat of paint will tell the tale....basically RLM 65 will be the primer over all the joints and if things are right, I simply continue.

That's truly excellent work Wayne. Completely invisible repair - great stuff!

Nice work Wayne!

Outside of the laborious task of filing and sanding, I detect that Zap-a-Gap came to the rescue. Very nicely executed Wayne.

Thanks for your comments guys!

Ok the horizontal stabilisers are on and finished, also for those that don't know the upper rear fuselage had a slightly offset panel line that is not often seen but i decided to add it...

Ah, that'll be the 'Attention to Detail' thing people keep telling me about.

Top work!

Nice Wayne. Question: what did you use for a straight edge when scribing that line and how did you hold it securely on that curved surface?

Nice Wayne. Question: what did you use for a straight edge when scribing that line and how did you hold it securely on that curved surface?

A short piece of Plasticard about 60mm x 5mm, I stuck some rolled strips of blutak along the curve and settled the plasticard into it and lightly scribed the line with one of my small cutting saws that I use for panel lines.

Thanks Wayne. I'm surprised it didn't move on you.

Very nicely done Wayne. Reminds me - I must get some more 'Dymo' tape to use as a scribing template !

NIce Wayne!

Very nice Wayne and I'm intrigued by your scribing method, I'm a Dymo tape man myself but that's because all the rolls I have came free a long time ago.
