Hello, As you may know I am now working on seamless intakes for kits which do not have much in the way of depth (Namely the 1/72 Academy Hornet and Hasegawa Super Hornet, more may follow, F-4, F-15?). An example can be found here, and below is an example. What was initially planned as a personnal thing (i.e. just for my builds, maybe some trade with fellow modellers) has spurred some interest for which I am most grateful. Since these intakes were initially designed for individual use I did not put the emphasis on ease of use, rather on smoothness and aspect once in place. I am thus now thinking to improve their ergonomy so they can be widely used, i.e. produced at a greater scale by an AM company. The question now is what would you find easiest to use out of the two options sketched below? All comments are of course welcome!
Please let me know what you think so these can be ready for the Hornet GB!
Many thanks for your help, Arnaud
