crobinsonh Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Here are the final set of shots taken outside on a cloudy day. Glad this one is over - largely my own fault having dropped it and that fact that Trumpeter and the UK distributor off now spares parts service whatsoever (I tried several times with both and received no response). The kit had the very extensive Eduard series of sets, Aires cockpit, exhaust and wheel bays, Avionix cockpit etc There are a number of mistakes - small tanks, early exhaust when it should be the later one. I am sure there are a bunch more. I also noticed post photographing that I have knocked the fuse extenders so that are not all equally spread. I was pleased with the effect of reducing the pin cushion divots that Trumpeter wanted to pass as rivets. Next stop finish the 2 x CMR Buccaneers and 3x CMR Scimitars 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spad Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Nice job there! Looks very convincing up close! What technique did you use for reducing the rivets? I'm having a go on a 1/48 Wyvern using Mr Surfacer 1000. ATB Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJP Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Your F100D is a mighty model & looks great - having seen one of my nearly completed models flip off my desk to the floor I can appreciate the resolve needed to pick up the bits & put it back together again - look forward to seeing those Buccaneers & Scimitars done CJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used Mr Surfacer 500 - a couple of coats which dramatically reduced them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
