Ripaman Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) I just read through thus thread today. There comes a time in our lives when we have to accept our limitations. I have finally accepted that, when it comes to building models, although I enjoy the hell out of it, I suck. Ian Hi Ian, everyone could do this if they have the tools, drawings and patience, more patience, and last thing if they want to do it, I know it is not for everyone but I enjoy it immensely, but thanks for reading my WIP all the way through, I hope you enjoyed it.

dodgem37 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Very smart work, Richard. I like that cable conduit. The front has a lead-in. There is no lead-in on the back face although there is a cable opening. Do you know why that would be? What did you use for your silver fasteners? Thanks in advance. Sincerely, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrongWay Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Speechless! This Hurricane has progressed into a museum piece. I learn a new build technique every time I look in here. Cheers, Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripaman Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 Fantastic modeling. Again great progres Progress is slow, as you very well know with what you are doing, I am not sure how many pieces I have discarded because I did not make it right, there are still some pieces that I would like to redo but I will leave it, had to saw cut some of the frame on the weekend due to just a bit out when I placed the tailplane, then my hands broke the foot stirrup mount brackets and they went to the floor gods, my wife came into the room and gave me a weird look because I was on all fours trying to find them must of looked real stupid, she just shook he head and walked out without saying nothing . I could have asked to help me find Regards Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
