Admittedly the Halifax is huge so you'd need a big one, but it's my preference anyway. Good for organising storage on the shelf of doom too Another great idea! Thanks! All the Best!

DJJunis Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Hello All, Added some more details to the cockpit. Have a look. Still more to be added before the paint and then the Eduard panels. All the Best! Don 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Sir Edward of the North Shore! it's all bent and soldered brass tubing and plastic. On the duel seat I did use the Eduard PE for the seat and back. The throttle stalks were a bit fiddly. Those are stretched plastic rod with knobs of CA. CA has an excellent property I that it balls up on the end of plastic, especially with just a hint of accelerator on you applicator. I use it for knobs and handles all the time. Are you ready for the snow? All the Best! Don 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had already asked for a work-from-home day (and got called "lame" for my pains by my boss), but I just got word that my employer is closed tomorrow on account of the storm...which so far has been nothing but a few flurries here. My wife hit the grocery store this evening, and we have enough cookies and pizza-making supplies to last us until we can hew a path through the snow to the car again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went out at 5:00 AM to get the walk and truck cleared and realized...not going anywhere and called in a vacation day. We ended up with 10+ and it looks like we may get some more tonight. We'll see. gave me some more time to get the Halifax ready for some interior green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJJunis Posted March 4, 2018 Author Share Posted March 4, 2018 Good Day All! I had some time to make some progress on the Halifax. Thought I'd share some pics with you. I have one bulkhead left and a few additional bits plus some additional painting and weathering before I'm calling it done as far as I'm willing to go. Enjoy the pics and as always comments are greatly appreciated. All the Best! Don 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJJunis Posted September 1, 2018 Author Share Posted September 1, 2018 All, Been working on the Halifax a bit more. Attached are the latest pictures. I decided to used the AML set for the "fix" to the engines. Not a perfect solution by any means but still looks better than the kit parts. The fit of the AML parts is very good with only minimal filling with Tamiya primer and a sanding stick. I have reserved my Aeroclub sets for another couple of builds. The fit of the wings to the fuselage is exceptional. The pictures show them before any gluing. In any case enjoy the pics and any comments are welcome. All the Best!

elger Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Looking good! If you have the chance, you could consider getting rid of the dinghy hatch that's molded on the starboard wing by filling the panel lines - as the Granger drawings show, the hatch should only be on the port wing; the kit wings look to be molded symmetrically but they're not *exactly* symmetrical.

DJJunis Posted September 1, 2018 Author Share Posted September 1, 2018 Elger, Thank you for the comment and especially for the heads-up on the hatch. It will be gone in the next update...much appreciated. All the Best! Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
