dude_gan_ainm Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I'll give this one Blitz blast but I'm not known for building quickly (Tortoise comes to mind),even with only six parts from the sprue being used I'm not 100% sure it will be finished.SWMBO & the kid are gone cross country so thumbs up.Heres the box/sprues (two kits per box),date n time & a block of lumber from a packing crate which arrived in work with a machine from Germany (which will be used as a base hopefully). So all set.LETS ROCK THIS MUTHR!!!! Sorry rush of blood to the head.I'll have to laydown for a while,I'm fine. Jimbob... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliffB Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Inspired choice! I bult the Huma version a few years ago Cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude_gan_ainm Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 Cheers Cliff.I'd say their very exciting gliders to fly,unbeatable view! Got the base cut to shape & sanded to resemble the shape of the skid.The plan was to varnish the wood now but my tin of varnish is buried behind a load of lumber in the shed so it will remain bare wood for now. Feelin a bit puckish so just threw on some noodles with added herbs n spices.Bon apetite mon ami. Geeeez over 3 hours gone already & the kit is still in the plastic. Jimbob...

SleeperService Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 That's made me feel hungry donuts for afternoon tea didn't quite hit the spot. Interesting choice I look forward to seeing what it becomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude_gan_ainm Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 Cheers chaps.The pizza hit the spot alright,Sleeper Service I was thinkin of doing a Finnish one from the box decals.Delicate it is Cliff,its developed a bend all by itself past the wing to the tail. Anyway my 12 hours are up so of to zzzzz.Not a lot done!Just added some small details on the rudder pedals with wine bottle foil & a new control column (kit one looked too thick),tail struts & control horns from plastic rod n strip. More later lads, Jimbob.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
