Good to see you've got one under your belt. I've started to clean up the parts I've glued together. I used a scraper to clean the seams off, then finished off with micro-mesh. I used an homemade sanding board to clean off the leading edge of the wing. Doing it this way leaves a nice straight edge. I only take off the minimum, or the edge will start to look flat. Hopefully, I will make a start on the cockpit next week. I will also take an off cut from the decal sheet to see if they are still useable. In the meantime, I can prime the parts I've glued together. Thanks for looking, Joe. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Jaime Hi Jaime, thank you. Sorry it's slow going. I don't know what happened in my last post. The words look really large. I must have pressed something with my fat fingers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the font size, you probably selected a larger font size in the correspondent drop-down menu of the post editor (on the top right of the editor window).

Fatboydim Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 With the arrival of the Airfix Walrus and after a chat with Jaime, I'm putting this build on hold, and starting my Walrus. Sorry for any inconvenience. Thank you Jaime. Joe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrlx Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 No probs, Joe. I'll be following your Walrus build with great interest. You can come back to this one after the Walrus, within or outside the GB. Cheers Jaime 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
