modelman182 Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) Way behind schedule with this one - got to finish it this week. The interior stuff is now done - fuselage construction this morning and then onto exterior detail and paint - followed by decals. Fuselage halfs - Interior colour is done. I've also installed and masked the windows. Used Parafilm M for masking, by far my favourite method! I've also blocked off the exhaust ports with some plasticard - the Flightpath PE comes with some FOD covers for the ports, so I saw no reason in spending time sorting out the exhaust seams, or even installing the exhaust parts. Interior - not strictly accurate, but it looks okay for the display I'll be using. The kit will be displayed in a perspex case with an MDF base and pine edging. This will limit the amount that can be see inside the aircraft. I'll simulate a tarmac pan for the base. More to come over the next few days... Any questions you want to ask, feel free to post them here or PM me - I'll answer as quick as I can.

modelman182 Posted June 4, 2008 Author Share Posted June 4, 2008 Nice work Kevin, what colour scheme do you have in mind? It's the RAF Rescue conversion I'm using so this is gonna be a good old canary - Golden Yellow airframe - all over! What could be simpler? (Knowing immediately that he will regret THAT burst of over-confidence! LOL!). Use the link above to see the first part of the WIP post and you'll see a pic on the conversion box and the profile on the decal sheet.
