On we go again for the AD lunacy....

Ah! since you mentioned the right word, it would be really interesting to see you building the electronics cabin !!!! (so we can use it as an example to finish our ESCI AD-4W)

 

Cheers,

Hello Gents,

Creating the bulkheads...

The fist one is done in plasticard...

I'll need 3 of these....

Stay tuned, more of CCization to come up.

Sincerely.

Hello Gents.....

And the lunacy is still going on.....

First a cardboard template....

And then a solid bulkhead made from plasticard....

I make 3 of them each time....

Since I still have another Esci Skyraider in the attic....

And plenty of weird ideas in my distorted mind....

Why not an early ECM one then.....

Now, I have my electronic compartment done, Let's start the funny game....

Sincerely.

From two years ago to right up to date. 🫣😍 Looks like you have a perfect fit with that scratch fire wall. I don’t know how but I’ll try and keep up to date. Hope you’re well my friend.

Thank you Johnny !!

I'm well, and you ?? I also try to catch up with your builds !!

Two years ?? Huh, time flies so fast.....

I'm getting old then but no more reasonable in plastic kits....

Fingers crossed for the decals of these old kits....

And I fotgot that.....

It will be a bit less easy now....

Erasing the cockpit armor....

And it has to be done on both 2....

The I decide for myself to open both the two doors on the AEW one....

Why so simple.....

Have a great modelling week end.....

Sincerely.

Hello Gents,

And here I'm again.....

Adjusting the doors , tedious job if any....

Since, I didn't found pics of the winch installation for the swedish TT...

I'll not open any doors, but the AEW one will have the 2 doors open....

We'll see meanwhile, I still can change my mind.....

See you soon Gents !!

Have a great modelling Sunday !!

Sincerely

CC

Where does the time go eh?   Interesting looking door you have there. 🥳

Great thread CC! Beautiful work.

 

I’ve been doing a bit of due diligence lately on converting the Tamiya A-1H to an AD-4N. Lots of great tips here, although it’s perhaps more difficult to find aftermarket now.

Hello Spad,

Doors are coming from the Meteor prod kits....

But, I'll use it to create mine since I'll let it open....

Where would be the fun ??
