The Augsburg Eagle....

[Wayne Little]

Doin' ok there Jan, nearly had a superglue mishap on my BV222 the other day while glueing the wings in place, thankfully I caught it in time...

 

[Lucky13]

Cheers Master Wayne!
Was lucky here as well, could have been stuck to the cutting thingmajig!

 

[Crimea_River]

Had my share of superglue thrills and spills too. I've since taken a tip from this site and am using a fork made from a cut sewing needle to apply the stuff.

 

[Lucky13]

Sealed up....

Looks good old fruit, well done !

Jolly good show old chap. One might get this finished, what !

 

[Lucky13]

One just might old bean...

Doing a bit of fiddling before my holidays....

Next, the wings... Two questions at this time, is it a good idea to attach the upper wings to the fuselage and then, the lower wings, or.....should I go with the instructions?
Also, they say aluminium for the wheel wells, is that correct?

I'm tempted to attach the upper wings to the fuselage first....

Nice looking innards Jan...if you are Jan. If the kit gets finished, I just might call shenanigans and suggest that the real Jan has been replace by an alien life form and is presently getting various unpleasant probes.

A bit of fiddling? You could get arrested for that!

I'd go with the instructions for the wing, especially if they direct the upper and lower to be joined first. As for the wheel wells, I always thought RLM 02 on the 'E', with leather, or canvas, zipped 'gaiters' around the walls.

 

[Lucky13]

Me as well old boy, greyish wheel wells, with brownish whatsit I'm thinking....

Thanks awfully chaps!

 

[Lucky13]

A bit of messing about, dryfitting, before travels.....

There's a minimum of tiny guiding pins, thingmajigs, which doesn't help, particularly in fuselage and wings, pain in the tailpipe so it is!

 

[Airframes]

I'm sure you'll cope old boy.

 

[Lucky13]

Well, there's no shortage of books there....might bring another kit with me home, or mail it, before I return to this island fortress....

 

[Airframes]

What, you think Borders Control are going to let you back in ?!!!!!!!!

 

[Lucky13]

Obviously, since I've got the keys for drink kabinett....

 

[SANCER]

Doing an E-7? You DID paint the cockpit RLM66. Don't make me come over there.

I once painted a Hartmann G-10 (or something) in Dark Green, Dark Earth and Sky. It won Gold.

In advanced.

[Lucky13]

Nothing much to report, did attach P/E and wings are now glued as well...hopefully some more tomorrow, let the wee bits and bobs dry over night, I think!
