Wolf Buddee Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 I decided to try and put all the various different sub-assemblies together to see how everything fit. The landing gear was temporarily secured in place, the engine,mounts and cowl frames were slid in place, and the upper and lower engine cowls were fitted. All in all I'm really impressed with they way everything fits especially as nothing has been secured with glue. It's beginning to look like airframe painting is not very far off.

Anders_Isaksson Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 As I have said elsewhere - simply superb work there, Wolf! Good to see your Spiftire on its wheels, looking forward to see more soon. (Hmm, believe this is actually my first post here at LSP... I have been following these forums on and off for a number of years but never got around to posting anything until now.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Wolf Hi Wolf, Great to see your Spit on it's gear. I'm in the process of building Tamiya's Mk.XVIe. Now that you have had a chance to fit the sub-assemblies together, do your side cowl panels fit flush and in place with rub strips that you made from Tamiya tape on the cowl supports? I'd like to do the same treatment to my cowl supports but want to make sure the rub strips don't cause any interference. Thanks, Shane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbell Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Looking mighty fine, Wolf. I've been saving all of your in-progress shots so I can shamelessly copy your detailing when I get back at my big Spit. If I may point one thing out, though; I don't know if it's a camera parallax thing or not, but the 20mm cannon looks as if it has a distinct downward tilt - it should be parallel to the panel line that runs along the fuselage through the bottom of the cockpit door. If it is indeed a camera angle thing it wouldn't be the first time I was wrong! Cheers, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
