LSP_K2 Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 With the exhausts now spritzed with MM burnt metal and given a couple of dirty grey/black washes, they look quite acceptable now, at least to me.

Just when I now thought this IP was finished, I noticed (after uploading the pics), that I have not yet added the ammo counter markings. Oh well, back to the bench for me, I guess.

LSP_K2 Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Elevators and rudder now have copper pins added to help with rigidity, once glued firmly in place. (These obviously still need to be trimmed shorter.) Greg W 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre F-86 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Looking at all the ejector pin divots, I have to wonder if they paid the die designer by the ejector pin? I have this one in the stash somewhere. Watching this and keeping notes for when I get round to it after I retire. LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 Hard to tell perhaps, but I took advantage of some really nice weather here today (for February), sitting out on the deck and finished the major prep work on the wing assembly. A few little touch-ups here and there, and it's ready to attach to the fuselage (once I get that work finished).

LSP_K2 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 I found this inverse plan view in one of my '109 books. Even though this is for a G-10, mine, from what I can gather, will be near identical to this. 109, Out2gtcha and Gazzas 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 Most of the starboard wiring guts have now been added, so I'm rapidly approaching painting time, which I dearly enjoy. Sorry for the lousy photo (it was the best of three). Fanes, Gazzas, Shawn M and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 Something that I've put off for far too long, but needs to be done before the 'pit is painted, is to add the shelf (for lack of a better term), behind the pilot seat. Once this is thoroughly dry, I'll trim to shape and add the harness attachment points. Shawn M, Out2gtcha and Gazzas 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted April 30, 2019 Author Share Posted April 30, 2019 Owing to circumstances somewhat beyond my control, I realized that I don't have the time to finish both of my planned projects for a show here in September, so I needed to pick one of the two. I've chosen this one for completion. Greg W and Gazzas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg W Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Really good. Are you going to present it as a stand alone model or park it on a base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be on a simple base, probably just grass. Right now I'm trying to figure out if my Tamiya 1:25 pilot is here so that I can finish that too.

ade rowlands Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Keep going Kev. Mine has been consigned to the bin. I just wasn’t happy with my efforts with the kit. There’s lots of scope for detail with it. If there’s no 1/32 109 from Tamiya I may just have another go around with the Trumpeter kit if I can steel myself for eradicating all those pin marks all over again.
