Cant believe the back end of the Revell Kit lends itself to a Spey engine conversion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cees Broere Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 We'll see how it works out. One side is glued the rest will follow today (working from home has it's merits). Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony in NZ Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Small update today, cant really see the hours gone in. But I am back to the main fuse working on surface details...still lots to go. Fanes, blackbetty, AlbertD and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlbertD Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Yea, those are the tough build sessions when you work for hours and can't really see much progress. When your doing such a complex project things just take time. Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cees Broere Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Thanks for showing the panelline details Anthony. As I need to rescribe the Frankenstein FGR2’s bum completely. Derek B and Anthony in NZ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony in NZ Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 Thought I better check in, not a lot of progress this week as working on fitting stringers to my Auster T.7 Several of the panel lines repositioned, a few added. A couple are a little scruffy, but nothing that cant be fixed. All the corrected panel lines are practically done on the fuse top and left side now. Fasteners need to be added to the removable panels, started some riveting etc. Cheers Anthony dodgem37, LSP_Kevin, Dragon and 17 others 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Marcel Thanks Marcel, I think next time if I was to do it I would use the whole plastic Tamiya fuselage and insert the section forward of the burner cans, but I dont have another conversion and I have already cut the nose off the one I have LOL 3 hours ago, blackbetty said: how did i miss this? love your work! Thank you sir! I am not sure how you missed it either, I thought everyone would be sick of it popping up to the top of the 'WIP' section! I want to make a big shout out to Rick (Spooky56) for being a champion and supplying me with another part J25 (refueling probe insert)...I just glued it in as there was no way it was coming out of the resin cockpit section!

And perish that thought. Until we see a new IM Brit toom (not holding my breath), you are the only game in town. On top of all that, your skill is a joy to behold.

AlbertD Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I need a Wild Hare fix. Any updates? I know a lot of what you are doing now is very labor intensive without much to see. Of course you probably have a life beyond modeling too. I tend to forget that sometimes being retired and able to work on my kits any time I want.

Troy Molitor Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Some super clean work going on here Anthony. I can't agree more than what DonH mentioned above. Troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
