Mal_Belford Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Thanks all for the kind comments..... Little done this evening.... Masked inside of the front canopy, Tamiya rubber black and lover areas, some dull dark green, a round of very diluted gloss....the glue areas were cleaned, and that line at the joint will be removed in time..... Another angle....Damn.....as soon as i take a Picture a Micro fibre from a tshirt lands on the glass....nah, i wont retake a Picture for that, annoying isnt it...note it is not in the paint. Also this is important from now to cover the cocpit area protect it against fibre particles from slipping in during work, so in time all will be masked of. /Mal Edited July 21, 2015 by Mal_Belford geedubelyer, Volture, Girlscanplay2 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal_Belford Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Now some head scratching........ The windows behind the headrest... Tamiya Glue is a no no....due strong capilary force on this kit due perfect fit....dont want to risk anything now... So leaning to use Micro Clearfix as glue or Tamiya Clear...hmmm oh well...i sleep on this.... /Mal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal_Belford Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 A reason why progress going slow.... My toothache i had, and my nightpal is injured from a fight with a common seagull, were at the Vetrinary yesterday, infection and all that, big open wounds that needs to be open for a week now..(the drainadge tube dont work on a bellyside on him...they tried)...damn i were worried.....he is recovering, he is geting anthibiotocs and painkillers, but i must say it hurs my heart i have to rip open the wound twice a day so it all gunk can slip out cause absence of drainadge tube, but it have to be done...and gently hand and firmly....and he understands since he sits and i can Clean him without holding him, he moarring loudly but he understands that it have to be done, or else he will be sick cause infection, animals do understand more than you Think.... one thing that shows recovery is apetite now, and less fever.....so he is on the way. yes it is open big wounds.....that are opened. /Mal BiggTim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
