Val Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 A lovely start. Best of luck with your build mate LOVE Phantoms so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christer A Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I have the same kit in the stash, but with a full compliment of Aires cockpit, burner cans, wheel wells and a few other bits and bob. Been meaning to start it for a while but then I get scared. I'll watch this with great interest! I love the cockpit-work so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booty003 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Very nice choice Pedja, the resin pit is looking fantastic! All the little added etch detail to the ordnance and tanks will really make this model spring into life when you are finally done. Great work.

Biggles87 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) I'm planning one of these in 1/32 using the Tamiya kit, so will be looking for tips. John PS. I can't tell from the photos, but I hope the seats are MB5s not-7s Edited February 20, 2017 by Biggles87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two H7,from Aires set, are now spare parts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This project is on hold for some time. But, the answer to your question, it is very difficult to fit everything right , the resin cockpit floor you should grid to the thickness of the micron (when the floor becomes transparent), then you try to thick plastic of nose whel bay (again, till it get almost transparent)... and even than ...it's hard to fit it in nose part of the fuselage. I hope i helped you, because i couldn't help myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
