Jboldt007 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Holy doodles ! this is crazy. Amazing. I've probably seen more Voodoos (as a Canadian) than any other military jet- loudest thing I've ever encountered (next to the Vulcan perhaps). I've even seen a Voodoo crash. But it was an amazing plane ... with that second-gen good looks... great to see what this evolves into !

Dandiego Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 (edited) A few small updates. This is some clear sprue super glued to the tip of the tail. It will need to be sanded to shape. Here is the first test fit of the Combat models windscreen and canopy. Not too bad actually. Careful sanding and a Future dip should help with the clarity. And last for today, an overall look of the main components. Wings will be a challenge as the air intakes, as molded, are too small. That's it.

Dandiego Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 Fin cap light, sanded to shape. Here are the horizontal tailplanes. Sc has come up with an ingenious design. There are 3 pins that hold both sides together and the whole thing pivots as well. And here I have joined the 2 rear sections together. Putty will be sanded smooth when dry.

Dandiego Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 I have been working on designing and printing the cockpit instrument panel. I am happy with this first version. But a few improvements are in order. Dan Azgaron, patricksparks, mc65 and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandiego Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 After a lot of contemplation I have decided to ditch the vac wings. SC's fuselage is so gorgeous I didn't want to graft on some very suspect vac wings. And I also didn't want to face the hassle of finding a way to attach them, install the wheel wheels and flap bays. So I sent an email to SC and asked if he would send me his 3d printed wings. He said yes. Now, he is still in the final design phase and these are not the finished product, but in my opinion will be much easier to work with. Anyway, this is just the first look. Much work still lies ahead.

Dandiego Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 (edited) Here is a little more for today. Instrument panel and shroud. Flaps. Grey copy is from SC. I will be scratching mine from sheet plastic with a 3d printed detail insert. Sc's part will, I am sure, contain tons of detail in its final form. Exhaust nozzles. Outside part courtesy of Chad Summers with the interiors from.....Me. Printing flap interiors as I type.
