Thomas Lund Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 I've been away for a while, but now I'm back, so I want to show you what I've done in the mean time. I've uploaded a couple in the Non-LSP section, but here is the first LSP: The Wingnut LVG C VI I bought this kit when it came out years ago and started it quite quickly. But when I got to the rigging part it stayed on the shelf of shame for quite some time (I estimate 5 years, I dunno). But then a friend of mine stated that 'to finish something you must always start your building session with the one furthest ahead'. That worked great for me and I finished a lot, but then this one was the one furthest ahead and there really was no way around it. I pulled myself together and finished it - finally. Pretty pleased. And it won a 3rd at our club show kkarlsen, Stef (#6), Vandy 1 VX 4 and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Lund Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 That looks fantastic, Thomas! Congrats on getting it finished. May I publish it on the website? Kev Off cause you may, Kev That is REALLY nice, kit decals or AM? He he heee JR, that actually both in one. I thought 'why paint the wing if it's all going to be decals'. Big mistake. Decals will not stick to bare plastic so I ended up buying AM lozenge, but from WnW :-) Wood fuselage is Uschi's decals (very nice, although I think he's got some new types today). With decals on wings and fuselage I estimate that only 5% of the exterior is painted Thanks everyone Jolly Roger and Vandy 1 VX 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
