CC Being "almost right"... the story of my life! With regard to undercarriage doors, I have no doubt your model will soon have a lovely set. In case of any confusion, I was referring to the photo of the real aeroplane, where the door seems to be missing? Cheers, Nick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share Posted July 25, 2019 Hello Dears Adjusting the u/c doors ! I filled with the Rat tail file, see wher the files are, And there too Then the main door has to be filed down to reduce its height ! If not, one will have some Schürzen to protect the whole wheel !! It can also be used for ice skating However !! Here's the resulting result obtained... By file Mc Result of course !! More to come soon.

corsaircorp Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 One more fun fact with old SH kits !! I was searching for the last u/c door Aaaand There is just one !! It has not been moulded in ... Both 2 kits are same way ! So on for doing this !! Luckily it's just a bit of straight plastic !! More roccities soon !! Sincerely.

corsaircorp Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 So, I'm working on the internals of the second Roc But I also add this !! These Brengun parts are ace !! Sincerely. CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 Hello Dears, Sincerely !! I hate this stuff !! Very thin parts on thick sprue !! I broke it at 2 places !! Now we had to stay gentlemen... Here's one of the first promoted RAF figures... Promoted to a FAA sailor of course !! Not easy to compose a guy that get out of the turret... Here are parts fron 3 differents figures... I will maybe buy another box... Meaning another Spitfire Mk IX .... More to come soon... Sincerely.

corsaircorp Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 Hello Dears, In my searches for some figures, I bring this back from the LHS Here are the sprues... Look @CedB there is Molly on the sprues... Now, I will make 2 remark, you both know that I'm a great fan of the british humor.. I'm almost sure that some Airfix designer helped themselves on the box cover... Look . The faces on the box cover are far apart from the actual figures, Imagine a kid looking at the box and sayin' "Look Mama, daddy is on the box..." My second remark is about this... could someone explain the poor lad that putting Avgas in the gun bay is a very bad idea !! And now his mate is about to do the same stupid thing... And maybe telling the third guy that the electrical connector did'nt go to the wheel and neither on the prop ! That said... My Dear @Martian Hale look what's waiting for you on the corner... Adjusting the landing light... One can almost make the two light with just one ... Of course My Dear Alien, You're not concerned by this... The turret "Fell" in the fuselage Of course, with the transparencies... It no longer get in.... But whatever... Closing the turret is funny in itself... More delicate sanding ahead !! Now, The Jackstand is almost right, The roc is levelled up !! I think that it will look right... More to come soon !! Take care and have a great modelling time !!

corsaircorp Posted August 16, 2019 Author Share Posted August 16, 2019 Hello Dears, I started my days of yesterday... 13 days at home , I already starte to cry... At first, it seemed to get on good !! SWMBO's friend has made some bakkery for us to try This chocolate cream with the orange behind was delicious ! The color were Martian and it has been done purpotedly... Well !! Then I have prepared the meals for the dogs !! Cutting and scaling around 50 Kg of meat and organs... It took some times... And it was the time were A strong argument erupted with SWMBO and we're back in the trench war... Once again... Like every time I get some rest... Well enough of whinning !! I played @Martian Hale's game with white plasic !! Making the missing Wheel well's cover and creating a support for the fire extinguisher Even the originals covers are far too long... So were my copies... So back at the ruler to fix it, there should have been a sort of mechanism on here but let's bet that the cover is stored into the wing when the U/C is lowered !! Here we are !! More to come soon !! Sincerely. CC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 Hello Dears, Some painting on the silver Roc today !! As they were maily used for training purposes in Lee on Solent, I will add the bomb racks ! As they probably were installed !! More to come soon !! Sincerely.

corsaircorp Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hello Dears, You both surely know that kind of modelling session !! You did a lot of little things but nothing is visible ... However !! I worked on Roc's bits then, a particularly hairy work !! Adjusting the turret glazing... It look good now, But, I'll have to create a ring to djust the turret in the roc Well Well well My Michelle !! not too bad !! Have a great modelling week end ! I'll make my best for havin' one !!

corsaircorp Posted September 1, 2019 Author Share Posted September 1, 2019 Hello Dears !! Let's carry on withe the fun !! What I suppose Hope is a fire extinguisher is glued in place ! Following step, the cecking is glued and lowered !! I find myself pretty lucky that I'll let the canopy open !! Since... Well !! a pic tell thousands words ! My dear @Martian Hale Will may be try to close it on his floatplane... But my second Roc will be open too Then I added the telegraph pole antenna mast ... I think that the engineers have had a great time in designing the poor Roc !! It was a contest on the best bad ideas to slow the aircraft by any means !! SWMBO has gone to the french coast... And bring back some pics !! Look Dover is visible !! Well, Hope that I can have some bench time tomorrow... Thank for popping in !! Take care of yourselves !! A bit better than I did for myself !! Sincerely. CC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martian Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 canopy is planned to be opened on my Roc as well. Martian 👽 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 Well well Gents !! Where are we on the Roccities front ?? First !! Joy Joy Rejoyce oh youth !! Enjoy the war, peace will be awfull !! Special Hobs specialities... Nice sink mark on the exhaust stack ! Since the turret has some difficulties to find its place in the fuselage, I started to scrap plastic on here... And here but it is a bit more scary !! And almost as dicey... Here too 😓 Here's where I'm heading for... Almost ... The plane on a stand and the crew exiting her as she was "constantly manned" It will be the time of the watch change !!... Now, Hoooops, I'm late to go to work... Have a great modelling time !! Sincerely. CC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
