Derek B Posted February 19 Posted February 19 20 hours ago, Tolga ULGUR said: I must say this clearly; Although this kit is a test kit, it has an excellent design and fitting overall. There will of course be minor difficulties. Exactly...excellent work Peter. Derek williamj, Martinnfb, Tolga ULGUR and 2 others 5
Tolga ULGUR Posted February 19 Author Posted February 19 Houston we have a problem !! But it looks like we can fix it The walls in the middle section of this intake are very thin. I think during construction the pressure from my fingers on the top and bottom of the cowling caused it. I fix it with epoxy. It would be better to make the walls thicker in this section Borsos, scvrobeson, IainM and 27 others 30
williamj Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Scale aircraft modeling has always been so much more than just "Putting Something Together" You go Tolga. It wouldn't be much fun otherwise, I am so impressed with this kit and all the fine details offered, can't wait. Tolga ULGUR, Troy Molitor, Kagemusha and 1 other 4
crobinsonh Posted February 19 Posted February 19 To get an accurate, well detailed 1/24th Defiant - one I never thought I would see with a few minor fit issues is a no brainer. Try assembling and fixing all the problems with the Kittyhawk 1/48th Mig-25 then this looks what it is - a easy model to assemble with a couple of small areas of filler. williamj 1
Tolga ULGUR Posted February 20 Author Posted February 20 Wing roots are Ok. Aren't they? Rick Griewski, HB252, Shoggz and 24 others 27
Tolga ULGUR Posted February 20 Author Posted February 20 On the other hand, I started preparing the parts of the famous turret. I am not commenting. It will be enough to look at the pictures. Ohh what's that? Two flash hiders have broken off and are thrown into space. Ohh Yoko Ohh Nooo!! Greg W, denders, Paul in Napier and 26 others 23 1 5

Tolga ULGUR Posted February 21 Author Posted February 21 Some progress Mother, do you think the wings need really to be glued? Mother did it need to be so easy ? Greif8, Troy Molitor, monthebiff and 31 others 34
