dutik Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 Am I Wernher von Braun...? We are the very other rocket project, not one of these vanishing paperclips! While moving to Austria the Natter lost a wing. It got recovered and refittet to the fuselage. Some people blame a clumsy rocket scientist for sanding with too much pressure, but Naaah! Our specialists are higly skilled people! Working results so far: Looks much better now! I've sanded the green lines somewhat down to achieve the look of a sloppy paintjob, done in a hurry. Next will be a clearcoat, then a wash for the paneel lines. Regards - dutik Landrotten Highlander, Derek B, MDuv and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Really looks the part, dutik! Kev dutik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutik Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 Added a light blue wash and a clearcoat and removed the masks: Phew! Windows are ok! A bit of paint dust here and there, but no frosting or damages. Time to add the small parts. The IP snapped off during masking, but was salvaged. There are some rudder vanes around the nozzle and some actuators too. Seatbelts still lacking. There are PE parts in the kit, but as often are aftermarket seatbelts much better. Have a set from MDC at hand. Enjoy! - dutik Panzerwomble, Derek B, Landrotten Highlander and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzerwomble Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Glad this is continuing Perhaps I'm asking the obvious - but are those marking for the fuel filler caps ? T Stoff and C Stoff ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutik Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 You are quite right, Chief Eagleeye The small white markings along the bottom read: "Support here". Don't know what the white circles are for. Regards - dutik Panzerwomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
