rafalbert Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 And we are done. I still need to add the aerial wire, and the old Matchbox decals resisted all the Microscale products I could throw at them by managing to silver in places, but she still scrubs up well for an old girl. All in all it was good fun; now to crack on with the Lizzie! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafalbert Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 Thanks Steve, however, I realised that I had missed off the astrodome. D'oh! It is now duly fitted. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 That looks really smart. A good example of what can be done with a classic kit & skilful modelling. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAAFPhot Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I have been given this kit and in spite of best intentions, it's getting built from the box. I cant seem to stop the wing leading edges cracking. Slight pressure and...bugger. I think there is just no real surface for the cement to bond and no internal support for the wings. Point noted re the fuz, plastic card support it is. I am back after a long break (20+) years so this one is a nice one to practice on. She will get my best efforts but not a subject I would normally build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
