Global Scale Modeller

It's looking great! Keep it up!

More lovely work there Tommy

Looks fantastic. I loved the trumpeter Mig-29 I built - so fun to build!

Great work sorting out that tank & putting the detail back onto it Tommy - that's brilliant!

Looking forward to seeing some paint on this now

Thanks guys!



Ok... I managed to get some bench-time today

It's time for some filler I think.... There's a couple of ugly seams at the nose where the fuselage halves meet up.


...and I followed the instruction without thinking and drilled out all the holes for the pylons - that was a bad move....


Added some noseweight as well


After the Liquid Sprue had cured for a couple of days I sanded down and polished the surfaces. I also had to drill out the holes on the outer pylons a bit


Cleaning up and dryfitting the vertical and horisontal stabilisers






Dryfitting the radome - it needs some work I think





Tommy

Done some more work - it's not much of an update but atleast it's something....

Glued in the radome - there's a small gap that needs to be fixed...


I will use a turned metal pitot tube, but I don't trust the instructions....


...so I will start by adding in the kit part and sand that down to fit the metal part


Some Liquid Sprue (sprue goo) to the rescue again...


Glued in the pylons


We are slowly getting there - but it's 3 steps forward and 1 back...
