krow113 1,678 Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 (edited) Drybrush masks were used to do the steps and window frames: Dbrushed in four colors: A good time to point out the useful demarcation provided by the cockpit coaming. I have a mask for this as well. Edited January 6 by krow113 10 Link to post Share on other sites
krow113 1,678 Posted January 7 Author Share Posted January 7 Mind numbing busy work. Double glueing the 40 odd eyelets into the top wing , rib tape decal repair and paint touch ups , readying the top wing for its install. Also thinking about strut attachment to the bottom wing. 9 Link to post Share on other sites

krow113 1,678 Posted January 25 Author Share Posted January 25 Fuse details; Specifically the gunring , gunring door , and the debris guards: A pic to show the a/m guard screen (not used , as well as the other 80% of the useless a/m set): No ref pics for the a/m screen , lots for the kit parts. Set up for painting. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
krow113 1,678 Posted January 28 Author Share Posted January 28 S'more fuse detail work. On the IP doghouse adding the 2 mirrors and sorting the windshield. Mirrors are mounted ,the left by drilling out the marked hole inside the doghouse and guessing where the right one went , both mounted slightly angled up and to the outside , care given that the 2 faces are parallel when viewed from the side. You can see the windshield in the pic laying there. I suggest that the windshield be fitted when the doghouse work is started. It fits problematically and needs special care to get it sorted: P/E bezels were used to replicate mounting flanges.. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
