  1. It was now time to take the next step: 707 "C" ready for landing gear installation. (I believe in tomorrow)
  2. Landing gear installation. Quite a bit of progress has been made in the past week and I should like to summarize it. I`ve done AVRO 707B, the landing gears are installed already. (But just with no decals) A bit of progress for the weekend here in pictures. Cheers. Andrii
  3. Hello friends! Today.. a present from my friend arrived. I`m happy again and again. That`s how this weekend came to pass. But whenever I get a chance I still work on my landing gears. But there is still so much work to be done here.
  4. I would like to congratulate you on the successful completion of the Beluga WIP. You worked so hard for that model. I wish you success in the new project. Best regards. Andrii.
  5. Presently the W.I.P. of my AVRO 707 (A,B,C) are being finished, then the IAR 80 will be ready to start as a new project.
  6. The landing gear design is quite enough for the normal workload but I replaced (an additionally) all of actuators (UP/DOWN LOCK) with metal (rod type) material and several resin`s parts was discarded. Hope its OK. My opinion about the kits quality: - a lot of cavities and general weak point of all the material surface are found during the work. Cheers.
  7. CHAPTER 32 Landing gear Shock struts, wheels, doors, and etc. painting preparation procedure and assembly. There has thus been some slight progress, hope satis. By midday I came to a small glade and found this "mushrooms". WARNING Don`t taste the unknown mushrooms.
  8. Now that I see how well You`re doing and enjoy watching your progress of work. I have a kit of IAR-80 in 1/72 by "Amodel" and I hope to be able to carry it out also.
  9. Well. The last painting area of the AVRO 707 "C" fuselage is here. I did something today, I don`t feel very good about: "Sun shades black mat color"
  10. And, you know, it`s so great! So I hope you`re having a good time!
  11. Hi Ihor! It is a very interesting project. It`s amazing what you`ve created. About the lost important parts from kit: - hold that image and try to do that two identical parts. You can do this. Cheers. Andrii
  12. Yes it is, I agree, so interesting. But this is very difficult work task (this is far from the final condition). It`s not an easy kit.
  13. The work step of AVRO 707 "C" painting procedures are here: - I use a two metallic type of colors for the access panels and external parts. Its a bit of progress. Had I know it would be this way...
  14. and was not impressed and made me reluctant to try another. John Oh yes. The kits are too hard for assembly but it`s possible producing a standard result I know. This work is not for the the weekend relax as I understand that during the W.I.P. And now I cannot get any photos with correct colors of the upper and lower antennas mast but yet I`m looking for..
  15. HELLO to everybody! I am presence exectly one year here on a forum and I am selebration Orthodox Christmas these day. Very niceevent for me. To be more precise, I have three - day weekend. I`d like to show you a bit airbrush painting work with AVRO: - landing wheel wells; - engine inlet channels (black edge and internal parts) are painted in according with scheme... Hope it`s OK. Andrii
  16. Before I start a painting procedures photo review, I have to show a bit my observation of the landing gear spare parts general condition. I have to finish this corrective actions before I start something new. There are too many cavities and too many problems with it. I can try to fix all of the defects. The next one step is better for me. Painting Hope you like it. Heppy New Year! Best wishes for everyone. Andrii
  17. If I knew that the contents of the boxes is so substandard, I would never start this project. I do not recommend for beginners. Just for the "Pro-resin`s" fans.
  18. I`ve done something during the last week. Chapter TWO. The work steps and work tasks are: - mask installation (I use PVA for the ring-formed transparent parts for "C" modification); - mask for the "A" & "B"; - grinding of the structures and skin area; - under wing covers of carriages installation; - Pitot tubes and external parts installation (the pitots was completely reworked by not commercial parts); - Preparation for priming works and procedures; - I use the Black gloss primer as a main layer before painting; (Upper side view) (Lower side view) Thank you for watching. To be continue. Cheers.
  19. Hello friends. A little bit progress for today. I had made an adjustment of gap between the wing surfaces and engines air inlets outer edges till flush. There is a typical method for the "A" and "B" modification. So far so good. I`ve made an air inlet channels (drilled) as well. I hope that everything is OK.
  20. Thank you for a very interesting comment. Allow me also to extend my sincere appreciation for the photo and life story as well.
  21. I have no choice. I`m going to have to do it correctly.
  22. I bougth these on Ebay...it was about 15-18GBP each Expensive or not I don`t know, I will never find same model kits from other manufacturer.
  23. Hello everybody! So, I came home within two week after my Telford SMW 2017, Cosford RAF museum and Birmingham gorgeous trip. There are so many people on the show!!! And all that together creates positive impression - one feel good inspiration. I think a modellers inspiration is in that direction. I continue my WIP on this weekend. Well, I`ve done some corrective action with all joint wing - to - body lines The engines cowlings inlet lips are installed also. The progress was slow, I know. Cheers. Andrii
  24. The next task Wing installation: "Right hands up here under here" " Now left hands UP" Done. Vertical fin and rudder assy installation We probably need to get the extra epoxy glue off. It`s got to be cut out from the join lines. ...and from here like this I`ve done
  25. It`s nothing much today. I`ve just restored a bit of panels and lines after damaged by sanding.
