ruzlkampf Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Looking GOOD Texas!!! Man, you're moving right along with this. I'm still at the bottom of the 2nd page! I need to use your battle-cry of "just get er done!" and get on the horse and start working on some of my projects in this GB! Sheesh, those engine pods sure do have a lot of pieces, eh? Looking forward to the next set of progress pics buddy! Later, Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 Progress has slowed to a snails pace while I wait on a rivet shipment from Archers. Hope I ordered the right rivets. Stau Tuned Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgbooyv8 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Hi Texas, Your engines are looking good! A good idea to use the Archers rivets to restore the sanded area. Can't wait to see the results. Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geedubelyer Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 You're getting there Texas. She's really taking shape now. Neat plumbing on the gear. How'd those Archer rivet transfers work out for you? Did you use them yet? Stick with it, this one'll be mighty impressive when it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks...As a matter of fact I started with the rivet decals last night but still have a lot more to apply.....Here's what they look like on the model...I did give the model a gloss coat of Future so the decals would lay down good and also applied a coat of Micro Sol after they had set a few minutes....What dou thank?
