Exterminatus Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I'm quite happy with the resilt, although the Airfix kit can be pain in the (...) sometimes. But in the end it's a beautiful bird.. Cheers from Czech rep. Andrew 70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Coombs Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Sweet. And an excellent job on the nose fit. If you don't mind my asking, did you follow the instructions there, or did you attach each half of the nose cone to the respective fuselage half?

If you don't mind my asking, did you follow the instructions there, or did you attach each half of the nose cone to the respective fuselage half? I can't answer for the builder although I am of the opinion that anytime a kit has a plug to install on a fueselage it is best to deviate from the instructions and line those halves up with the fuselage. The seam in the middle is always easier to eliminate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamiltonian Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Lovely aeroplane, lovely markings, lovely finish. That's the plane that very nearly kept my father in the RAF in 1946! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Beautiful in every way. The overall smooth finish is perfect. Very tempted to crack open my kit now after seeing this. Cheers.. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would by much easier to attach each half of the nose cone to the fuselage first, but I've lost the attention there and did follow the instructions to the letter.
