degsye39 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 (edited) Hi chaps,hope we are all well.. Im coming to the final steps of building italeris 1/72 junkers ju88.. it has been a bit of a Battle in fairness and not one part seems to of fitted! So after many stumbling blocks imagine my dismay when coming to fitting one of the lower areas of glazing.. abysmal fit and a massive step! Pictured below is the area in question i have tried to put a slight chamfer on the sides where the canopy meets and i have also tried to cover up the offending step with paint! doh! still very noticeable! What is my best bet to get this step sorted would i be able to apply a layer of cristal clear over the lot to level things out? If i try to use superglue over the step will it fog my (klear dipped) canopy? Any help greatly appreciated gents! thanks!

Steve Noble Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I think the best result would have been to rectify the step before painting. If you can remove the canopy I would add some material (maybe strips of plasticard) to the edges of the canopy to bring it level with the outer edges of the fuselage.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 You may have to tape off the surrounding areas. Putty and sand to blend it in. Then re-paint the damaged areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
