mgbooyv8 Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 It's starting to look like a Typhoon now. Succes with quick filling and sanding. I like to see the result after the first coat of paint! Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azgaron Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Thanks Peter! Most of the seams are filled and ready to get sanded! I hope to get going with the painting soon. Cheers, Azgaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azgaron Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 The sanding is almost done, and it's soon time for primer, but I got one small problem. I had to fill the seam where the wing parts meet, and now I wonder if the flap is supposed to be one or two parts? Cheers, Azgaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgbooyv8 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Hi Azgaron, I consulted a drawing of the Typhoon. The flaps are divided in two parts per wing. The division starts at the hinge, at the kink in the wing, and is perpendicular to the hinge line. One go with an Olfa P-cutter or an engraving needle should be sufficient. Succes with painting!

Azgaron Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Hi Peter, Thanks for the answer! I thought it might be that way! Then I'll do a perpendicular (had to use Google/Wikipedia) "cut" with an engraving tool. Cheers, Azgaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Interesting tip to make the cannons in this link... http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.ph...mp;#entry150775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azgaron Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Thanks for the tip, Erwin! A pity I didn't get it earlier! Maybe I can redo them later, or have it in mind to a later build! Cheers, Azgaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azgaron Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Well, I was hoping to finish this bird in the last minute, but my compressor connections wanted otherwise, and I wasn't able to fix it in time. Although I'm not sure I would have been able to make it, at least working stuff would have made it a bit easier. Enough ranting, now I'll go fix the connection properly so I can finish the Tiffy, and get started with my build for the Luftwaffe GB.

Azgaron Posted April 1, 2008 Author Share Posted April 1, 2008 Dave, Yes, of course! I'll get to it asap! Cheers, Azgaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
