Kendzior Posted November 1, 2019 Author Share Posted November 1, 2019 The airframe glued together and after initial filing. Looks better than I have expected. I'm glad that the underside is almost perfect, some filler and some inserts were necessary, but nothing of a "mission impossible" kind. Hope you like it too Stay tuned, Hubert LSP_Kevin, daveculp, R Palimaka and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggles87 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) Looks good to me, I didn’t realise that you could insert the tailwheel bay/strut after joining the fuselage. That’s something worth remembering, as I am prone to knocking off sticky-out bits. John Edited November 2, 2019 by Biggles87 Kendzior 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 I seriously need to pick one of these up sometime. Lovely shape. Looking great Hubert. Kendzior 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not glued yet - have to paint it all inside first.

airscale Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 very nice - there is something about those early Hawks - I quite fancy doing one ..until then, I am loving watching you do this one Peter Kendzior and KUROK 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendzior Posted November 2, 2019 Author Share Posted November 2, 2019 Meanwhile, the tail unit installed, there were some issues with the vertical stabilizer and the rudder, the fit is poor and some adjustments were necessary - it's not perfect now, but I can live with it. As you can see, have changed my decision regarding the pilot's seat. The Eduard's one is a bit smaller so in the end I gave a chance the one from the box. Of course, had to thin the "tin", add a piece at the backrest and seat connection, seat-belts and ... voila. Not perfect, that's just me... but I will leave it so. The canopy will be closed anyway ;). That's it for today. Stay tuned Hubert R Palimaka, LSP_Kevin, Troy Molitor and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendzior Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 A little more filing... and the exhausts. Frankly, I do not know if its alright... The worst thing is that I have no good photographs of the exhausts, and the plans - each one shows them differently. I will probably drill them and leave as it is. Maybe SH knew how it should look like. R Palimaka, scvrobeson, Trak-Tor and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMaben Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Don''t know if these will help Hubert ... Each side is different. R Palimaka, Kendzior, Kagemusha and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendzior Posted November 11, 2019 Author Share Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) Thanks, Mike The exhausts differed in each version of H-75. Those installed on A-4 and probably A-7s didn't look like these.Look here. That's quite similar to the SH rendition.

MikeMaben Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Yeah they did, I just thot maybe the pix might help. They're of a P-36A. Model on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
