Wackyracer 933 Posted March 25, 2018 Calling this one done. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the build. Learnt some new techniques including my first rivet job and also learnt hairspray and masking tape don't mix no matter how long its been on! 1/32 Hasegawa FW190 A-8 Aaron 20 MARU5137, Zero77, MikeMaben and 17 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill Cross 4,272 Posted March 26, 2018 How did you handle the insulators on the radio aerial? I'm always curious the best way to render them. 1 MARU5137 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wackyracer 933 Posted March 26, 2018 How did you handle the insulators on the radio aerial? I'm always curious the best way to render them. Some stretched spruce just slightly wider than the wire. cut to length then white glue dabbed on aerial and spruce dropped on. white glue tends to mould around both. touch of white/grey paint to finish. first time I've tried to replicate and best idea I could come up with. 2 MARU5137 and Bill Cross reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
