giemme Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 It's incredible how little this thing is seen "in the flesh", and the amount of details you put into it! Can't wait to see how the side doors turn out - meanwhile I'm working on an updated versione of my vacformer... Ciao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewbacca Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Looking good Silvano. I'm not sure if you know you still have it to do or if the Airfix instructions are wrong, but don't forget that the Orange Crop aerials (the panels on the nose, main undercarriage pylons and near to the tail boom) should be a very dark satin grey/near black 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't have covers when I was flying them, just a very nice polished wooden ceremonial one for the nose array! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantom61 Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 Hi mates... after the vacuforming session with Giemme ... I continue with both the Lynx and the flight deck repositioned the window on side door... lower using the position and dimensions of the Airfix kit. I put the primer to check for any defects new photos soon ...

giemme Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Unbelievable.... I keep saying that, but having actually vacformed that door myself, I know how tiny it is, and this level of detail you are putting in is just mind-blowing Ciao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
