osirsia Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Hi guys, This will be my entry in my first group build AND my first ever work in progress thread! No fear!... The box & tools: The sprues: There is a little flash to be trimmed including some 'tree stumps' on the inside of the wings but it doesn't look too bad. Not sure about the pilot though, looks like he is desperately waiting to use the toilet! I have a long weekend, the house to myself, the Buffy the Vampire box set and lots of coffee!! Let the chaos commence!.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osirsia Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 Some progress on my YAK. The fit and flash is quite harsh in places: Rather than try and fill the gaps in the intakes using glue and sprue, which is not something i would be comfortable doing as i am quite new to modeling, i just cut it back & scraped it out with the knife edge and filed it a bit with my emery board. Got it assembled (except the prop) and ready for painting: Will have a bash at starting painting tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
