Cool idea on the modified tweezer tip Matt Thanks, yes worked very well for this task with soldering, keep it in place, like IRL welding tools, same principal, and heat it and seeing it getting in place, very satisfying to see that. i will get that soldering fluid that contains micro bits/balls of soldering in flux, but later one step at the time lol. scvrobeson 1
Mal_Belford Posted June 28 Author Posted June 28 Jihaa, got little time for my own, liitle, and im happy to spend it on what i love to do....modelling. therapy time when its best for me. PE details in place, used VMS Flexi Ca, get little more room to adjust em parts, sweet will do just fine for me. denders, coogrfan, Dpgsbody55 and 12 others 15
Mal_Belford Posted June 29 Author Posted June 29 Allright, as usual some upgrades needed here, that rod with ball end. alu tube and kit part. Cut of the ball end, drill a hole, piece of guitar string and alutube. Mount them pieces, hey way better imo. And now that headrest...hmm quite booring, well gotta do something about that. Also need to do a seat cushion, Milliput to the service then. Aaand done, and more.PE tiny tiny parts in place. HB252, Shoggz, TankBuster and 13 others 16
LSP_Kevin Posted June 29 Posted June 29 I'm jealous of anyone who can get Milliput to do their bidding. Terrific work, Mal. Kev Mal_Belford and amurray 1 1
Furie Posted June 29 Posted June 29 (edited) Hi Mal, awesome work you're showing us, as always! I just remembered that I visited the IWM in London last year and took a few photos of the Ohka. Thought I'd post them here, maybe you'll find them useful. Hope they come in handy. Keep up the great work, my friend!

Love the medium Milliput, its good to have in the arsenal of good things in the sleeve.

Matt Well we will see if i find out why that red line on the front top fuselage is for as i wonder it myself, as ill see what my research can tell me. For the moment no build, as im out at the countryhouse but doin research, interior colors, And sure a mess "again" lol as my Arado. Many bids, and no not the same as their operational aircraft at the time, some are but others no. At the moment interior a bleached RLM02ish with Tan or buff and Aotake on metal areas, green chair and black iP, well more research. scvrobeson 1

No, nothing, as im near sighted, take my lenses out when building, got -4.25 on both eyes. (only near sighted and no astigmatism luckily) When needed even closer i use magnifying visor on top LoL, but not needed in that case.
