Me262A-1/U4, 1/48 Dragon

[SANCER]

... With strips of plastic stretched with a flame, I filled some gaps in others a bit of putty and a good sanded ...

I regained some lost panels during sanding, also noticed some details on plugs, gates and a cap (think fuel) that is supposed to the rear of the cab and does not include the Dragon kit.

A consultation to staff members:
I have observed in this new format of our forum, which only allows me to include 10 pictures, is right ?, or the amount depends on other factors?

Which is why I posted up to 10 images lately.

The tenth image that I include in this block is the final finish of the gates in its internal part.

I appreciate your response to the great team of staff members and again congratulations on the hard work and achievement of our forum.

...To be continued

Thank you for your comment my friend, is likely to be a bit neat, but not settled as I would like.
I'm in a temporary place inside the home; I have to make some adjustments in house and allocate a new room for my sanctuary and therapeutic enclosure, ... but that will take some time yet. [-o<

I share my "ordered-disorder" ... lol

Saludos cordiales

Hi Andy, I'm glad to see you around. As you can see, I would like to have more time to enjoy my "therapy time" and then, upload photos. Saludos.

Thanks for your quick response Wojtek

I took 2 days with problems with my internet signal. And I believe that sooner least a couple of days more.
I'm still with the detailed and full preparation for the fuselage, to start the process of painting. On the other hand preparing the pieces of glass cockpit.
For when I solve my "technical" carrier delays ... I get current.

Saludos

P.S. I am writing from my smartphone, I hope is clear and understandable

 

[Wurger]

No problemo .

Hello again. (Quickly they came the technicians to correct my internet signal ... again I'm ON AIR! )

This is how the gates were completed (at the time paint the outside)

Heeding friendly comment from Augsburg Eagle (# 84), I did include the detail of the hole where the used cartridges are thrown away. (Cartrige eject)

... I used the stick of a lollipop !!

The top cover of the box shrapnel (do not know if is so well written and is the correct name), it did not fit well and the front was curvier than the shape of the fuselage required. (I did not take initial picture of this ...), but this is the sequence as he could adjust better after filing and sanding necessary.

... Continue ...

 

[Crimea_River]

Likin' it!

 

[SANCER]

...return...

By pretending to remove the marks of injection, I chose better to scratch ...

... Later on I will give color and weathering.

I have parts lists to attach the wings to the fuselage ...

... It has been several times where I've been able to advance and I look forward to spending time.
I hope that someone can be useful much detail during the process.

...I'll be back...

 

[SANCER]

My great friend Andy, I hope you continue enjoying it !!

... Once the glue was dry (the next day), I gave myself the task of reviewing the assembly of the pieces and find the best solution to do my best.

I know that I will not "inventing the black thread" ( is a "byword" here in Mexico -inventar el hilo negro-), but it can serve as a tip for someone in his beginnings in modelism, and who is visiting here ...
Disposable dishes have been very useful to get mainly from bases, PVC sheets and, as there are different qualities and resistance, which allows me to have different thicknesses, where can I get and save a few pennies! (Now at meetings of friends, also reviewed their disposable plates to see if any new variety serves me !! ... lol)

So I took the measurements of the space and cut some pieces to apply in this lower fuselage ...

... And so it was after a good session sanding...

To the front I was what I decided to use with limes and my Dremel and then carefully sanded ...
f247-249

... It looks good, but those pictures before application of the primer, I´ll show you later ...

... I find some time tomorrow to continue with photos, as the Me ...

Good night and good start to the week everyone.

Hi mates, I very much appreciate your kind comments.
I'm really enjoying the process and I'm flattered that you too George; I have also quickly start painting Andy.

I have met with some details that deserve my attention, so do your best to achieve progress in my skills and practice in my airplane.

The cabin carries a handle (PE) that goes to the center inside the bubble; Using a strip of tape, give better support tiny piece (no holes are indicated in the transparent part), while give a more realistic look to the inside.

...the same tape used to detail the back of the glass cockpit, I made a hole where I can secure the antenna cable coming from the tail.

... In front of the windshield there is a big gap and occurred to me to that the way to refill giving better support to the putty that I will use will be with a small piece of scratch ...
