  1. It has been S*** down here as well Alistair. Meanwhile she is coming along nicely sir. Simon.
  2. The Airfix one? This Eduard one looks like she going together a treat Alistair. Simon
  3. Yep, one of those things Alistair. I think we all look at the instruction and see if the U/C can be fitted at a later date. Sometimes it can, sometimes it`s a no way baby. Still, as you said, just be careful. Simon.
  4. Nice and steady work Alistair. The U/C is a fiddly so and so, try doing it on 1/72. But it looks so good once done. Simon.
  5. Cheers Alistair, the more I get going on her the more I find out that I have to paint areas that would be hard to get later, especially behind the air intakes. Out tomorrow, but hope to get a bit more done once I get back. Simon.
  6. Thanks @PeteH1969, @Marlin. On with the show, side panels together with rear bulkhead and front U/C bay. IP fitted to the floor. Then after some choice anglo/saxon words and a bit of fettling I managed to get the front end together. The nose cone was just used for alignment. I going to let that set. Simon.
  7. A nice start Thom, a bit of reinforcement doesn`t harm, some kits are well known for flimsiness at major joins. I will tag along mate. Simon.
  8. Thank you sir, I have been looking at the Revell instructions and they as clear as mud concerning the air intakes and exhausts. But these make a lot more sense. I have downloaded them and will print the ones needed. Simon. Once again a big thank you.
  9. A nice job on those tail hinges Chris, and I agree, the tail boom walls need to be thinned a little. As above condolences to you and your family. Simon.
  10. Well Alistair, you are not hanging around. Looking good mate. Simon.
  11. Thanks lads, I am reasonably happy with her so far. Yep Giorgio, they made an error on the sheet or in the destructions with the numbering. The are also a bit thick to, especially over any raised details. I did give them the "Micro set/sol treatment. Simon.
  12. True Roger, true. Well after seeing my mum off on the train and doing some shopping I was able to set forth on the Foxbat. Paint arrived this morning so gave bits a spray , then after lunch started to play. Seat done. No seat belts sadly, they had them for sale with other P.E. for the office but you can`t see naff al once closed up. And some decals applied, which to honest were a pain. I still have to paint the throttle lever. The IP one is a horror and I would suggest cutting up into the various panels in hindsight. Also they made a boo boo with the IP that I had to sort out. A coat of satin varnish next then leave to dry overnight. Keep dry. Simon.
  13. No plastic but some supplies for the cave. The paint is for the Foxbat, the sanding sponge is a try out. Simon.
  14. Those tail fins turned out OK in the end Alistair. Nice work and perseverance. Simon.
