monthebiff Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 Managed to get the cockpit completed now, added some missing detail to the fuselage side walls. All very good but as you can see the fuselage halves no longer close properly due to the instrument panel being a little over size. Some careful sanding needed but happy none the less. Regards.

monthebiff Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 Turned my attention back to the radiator today and made a couple of plasticard inserts to cover the big mould seams and then covered in Aber mesh. Not perfect but better than the start point And fitted in to the fuselage Need to add some more piping detail from the radiator in to the fuselage but happy with progress in this area Regards.Andy LSP_Kevin, Victor K2, Troy Molitor and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 Made a good step foward today with getting the fuselage all closed up. A little rough underneath but will be just fine when finished. So far so good, time to get filling and sanding it is then! Regards.

I have some HpH 2 part epoxy which I am going to try on this one Max and plasticard scrap for the big gaping holes to start with. Regards.
