BlackLight Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Hi guys, this little one was built last november. In order to improve it a little more, I had to made the instrument panel, control sticks and the seat belts (all of them scratch built). The version I choosed was the RAF Central Flying School, Cranwell, 1997. That was because I like this black-yellow stryped scheme...looks cool to me The kit is an old one and the details are just fair. The parts come together just fair too...needs some putty and sanding work. I used Humbrol enamels and for the finishing only chalk pastels sealed with a coat of gloss spray varnish from Testor. The pics: Well, I hope you like this micro-kit Cheers, BL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackLight Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 Hi Royster, well I really used many "Grs." inside the nose, but when I glued the wheels I realized that I must used more nose weigh... So I decided to put a little metallic wire piece in the aft-low section.. and there it goes Marseille: thanks for your extended words....hahaha...have a big hug my friend, see you next weekend BL.
