56 squadron Hurricane I (Revell)

Hello Max,

The assembled wheel bay assembly looks like it could be a challenge to paint. Watching your whole build with interest. Great looking cockpit.

Thanks Rick, I think both the cockpit and wheel bay will be "interesting" to detail when painting, but like the Typhoon it should come together quite quickly once this is done.

Hi Max

Thanks for the info on Powerbond and it does seem to be CA Glue. I right with you on being a bit nervous on cleaning off the mold release agent on such thin and fragile parts. In such cases I take the easy way out and let them soak in warm, soapy water, then in two cool separate baths to remove the soap - then air dry with no scrubbing and minimal handling. All seems to work well and seeing how brilliant your front office looks, you handled the cockpit perfectly.

Keep 'em coming

Peter
