RLWP Posted November 20, 2021 Author Share Posted November 20, 2021 More stuff: I'd better explain all this nonsense Firstly, it's my kind of thing. Exploring the structure and engineering of an aeroplane and replicating it in a model fascinates me. I'm an engineer More to the point, if I go and cut a 'normous hole in the bottom of the 'plane and hang a gun pack below it, a lot of interest and pictures are going to be around the underside of the cockpit. So putting some kind of detail into the area below the cockpit floor, and in the front wheel well makes sense (to me...). Maybe even the wing wheel wells I'm still worried by those RAF MK.II winches Richard Richard BradG, KiwiZac, MikeC and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RLWP Posted December 14, 2021 Author Share Posted December 14, 2021 Still going... Three bits of sheet styrene made into a sandwich, then cut into little bits: Cut to shape and stuck around the wheel well: Making something that looks slightly more like a Hunter: I was concerned about getting the AM leading edges and wingtips to bond properly, so I cut the kit parts about instead: Richard Landrotten Highlander, Fanes, johncrow and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
