corsaircorp Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 Call the Vet ? Why for ? If it is for the poor Albacore, it's a bit too late, he entered another life as a protein chain in my stomach If it is for me it is also too late, I'm made off, even my shrink has commited suicide Back at the Roc now See you later CC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 Hoops, I was about to show the result in the plate Tatzaaaam ! Albacore à la provençale, it has been appreciated. Must paid a look at Nigel's meal, was it Haggis ??? For the one who build a turreted Roc !! DO NOT Follow the instructions, look They ask you to glue the barrels on the breech block How will that shoot ??? That poor breech block are anemic ! I will make them looking a bit better, Something like this Sooo, dears, Will bought a set of barrels with oval perforations, 2 Lancaster packs I also spend a lot of time on my future RFI Lots of work tomorrow, hope that I can work a bit in the evening. See you later, Take care and have a very nice modelling day ! Sincerely. Corsaircorp 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 Hello Dears, Very tired, so did'nt do many, I worked on the bucket that pretend to be a seat And adjusting the turret mechanism. Parts are felling from my stubby fingers, hairy stick go astray. cannot make it good that way. I used tiny roll of sand paper for reducing the depht of the seat, will compare with a Spit or Hurri seat tomorrow. Have a quiet night, hope to get it for myself And a pretty fine modelling day.

corsaircorp Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Hello Dears, Did lot of little things today, I Wonder myself about using another seat for the Roc This one look good and did'nt need any transformation. Don't know ??? Have a very nice modelling Sunday. Sincerely. Corsaircorp 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martian Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 The resin seat looks way nearer the mark. Had I had one like that, I would have used it rather than pratting around with the kit part. Martian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I once again run out of likes. I'm improving the interior and the turret. Little by little, piece by piece... Sincerely. CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBaron Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 How did I miss a second Roc appearing in the WIP section? Looking towards to seeing how you get on with the turret interior Cc. Were the Bolton Paul turrets identical on both the ROC and Defiant? There are some great sequences of the latter here: Hth, Tony 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 Thanks Tony, Very interesting video. I always Wonder how courageous or unconscious one need to get stucked in this thing.

Martian Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 I believe the Roc and the Defiant did share the same turret. Martian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martian Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I checked the exhaust stubs for fit to the engine ring every time I added one, its very easy for the assembly to go out of alignment. Martian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 Hello Martian, Yup, very easy ! I just put 3 at 120° and then check with the ring. This already a pleasure. Then when the fit seem right; I'll gkue the ring and add the other stacks ! I follow your way Oh Great tentacled from the outer space ! Your idea is clearly the best one for having a good result. I warmly thank you. Sincerely. CC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
