Cammer625 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 We shall see if I can actually finish a kit during a Group Build. Had both these kits and figured might as well do both at the same time. And the Beaufort 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianMF Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Looking forward to the Beaufort in particular. I've never touched the High Planes kit (in the end I cracked and tarted up the FROG one) but from what I've seen on the web it seems like a very nice short run kit and I would love to see how it builds.

Cammer625 Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 A bit of progress last night (advantage of living down under- the 6th was yesterday lol). Soft plastic makes clean up easy BUT also easy to carve new unwanted features if one slips. Just a tad of flash as can be seen by the accumulation of shaved blue plastic. As they say, the first cut is the hardest. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81-er Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I'd say there's a fair bit of cleanup to go looking at the wings on the top left James 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching with interest! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wings unlevel Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Great project, two of my favourite twins, although the “for experienced modellers only bit counts me out. 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve come to a bit of a predicament- my compressor isn’t turning on and until I fix it, no painting. It’s a 15cfm industrial one so it might take a bit (and cost a bit) to get it fixed. oh well. More filing, sanding, filing, sanding. And so on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
