BloorwestSiR Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Really great Kent. The trolley and cockpit are both very impressive to see. Carl kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) Kent, I really like what you're doing here. The cockpit details are stellar and I love the historical photos you've shared.

CANicoll Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I love following along watching this terrific work you are doing - it is really inspiring! Can't wait to see it coming together and putting the wings on now was not a nice thing to do: what a tease!!! Looking great! kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkarlsen Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) So, the canopy is finally in place, it took a little 'convincing', but it did get into place... BTW: The frames are painted from the inside. I will experiment with printing the attachment bolts/screws on clear decal film, to see if that will do the job... The hatch for the canopy still needs some details, as I want to display it open... The wings are fixed using HPH's epoxy and some brass profiles, I do not want anything to come loose...

Trak-Tor Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Hi Kent, great show as usually. While looking for something else I've stumbled upon this: https://rarebooksjapan.com/?p=15277 I guess you have enough resources, but it won't hurt me trying to help, will it?

alaninaustria Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Kent, looking just great!! What a pace and what a beauty!! As for the fastners, why not just take a strip of Tamiya tape, lay it over the area where you need to have the fastners and mark the location and using a punch set punch out the little holes - and then reapply the tape(s) and when they are all lined up and ready paint them with the airbrush. That's how I managed my Ju-87 rear and center canopies. Cheers Alan Edited April 22, 2018 by alaninaustria kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkarlsen Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 Time for an update, preshading and masking... I have been struggling with the paint scheme (my first luftwaffe splinter camouflage) After several attempts and corrections, I'm finally ok with the look...
