zak Posted November 18, 2016 Author Share Posted November 18, 2016 (edited) Hey chaps hope all are well. Not much to show at the minute. Much of my modelling time has been spent on rebuilding a few elements (3-4 times...) The nts unit is being scratched again as my first (or 5th...who knows) effort was quite abit out, same with the skids. Also have a few goodies on order as well which will hopefully add a few nice touches to the finished kit but I'll reveal those at a later date. Added extratech PE washers to the belly drainage pipes, pipes made from aluminium tubing Detailed the nose drainage pipes with telescoped aluminium tube Built the m197 cannon. This took a good couple of hours mainly to get it lined up correctly but well worth the effort when completed. Really need to grow another pair of hands.... Found some spare eduard PE hinges which look much better than before More soon folks, thanks for looking and commenting guys!

zak Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Hi folks Just a small update, lost my mojo over the Xmas period so slow progress. The nts unit..... Version 15 or 16 who knows... It's starting to resemble the real deal now, pics are a little crappy but hopefully you can see the adjustments I've made. Also sourced some mirror paper (the same stuff used on two way mirrors) to use on the left side camera glass, will post pics shortly. Began riveting the tail and boom, looks a little messy at the minute as I'm using humbrol's decal fix. This leaves a gluey residue but has a much stronger bond than microfix/sol. I'm using a two different sizes of archers rivets and Micromarks rivets for the larger rivets. Also scratched the tie down thing on the centre of the boom More soon Zak Edited January 11, 2017 by zak F`s are my favs, NavyF4s, johncrow and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
