buccymad Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) hi guys plenty of build threads on t`internet so i wont go into any great detail here . started this a few months ago now and haven`t got very far with it, mainly because i decided to do the intakes got some flexible pipe, smothered it in white putty and after a few weeks of filling,sanding,cursing(mostly cursing)and painting im left with this also also did some detailing of the air intakes etc and started making a jockey to go with it god i`d forgotten how much fun photobucket is Edited March 19, 2017 by buccymad spacings all over the place 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buccymad Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) right ,quick update ,not much to report other than the spine going on,trying to bash the airbrake into place and a whole lot of minor adjustments to the airframe,like scribing a circle then carving it out for the emergency canopy release system,squaring off the A.P.U ?exhaust because i automatically assumed it was a round hole ,after checking pictures i found that the exhaust is more square than round ,adding the small intake to the base of the tail,and just general flaffing about! and i managed to make a creepy little hand for the pilot geezer got some eyes in there as well all still looks a bit rough,needs a bit of fettiling ,oxegen mask next!! p.s sorry for the naff pictures but im using my mobile Edited March 28, 2017 by buccymad spacing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buccymad Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 right ,not much to show,been banging my head against a wall with this one sprayed the intakes with vallejo acrylic white,first time using it and wasn't too impressed. it also showed up all the flaws in what i thought was a smooth sanding job,so it was out with the sanding sticks again,thankfully i seem to have cracked it now also i'm almost finished the pilot ,been working on the oxygen mask ,still a few wee bits to go on it but im happy with the overall shape,sorry for the lousy pictures ,but i'm using my phone for this intakes first the pilot well ,thats all for now folks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
