FalconFan24 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I picked this kit up for 10 dollars......and it is a pretty easy build. Gonna finish this up in 2 days. Got the cockpit done in 2 hours and gloss coat is on. Next step: filter will be applied and flat coat.

If you are not familiar with the kit, it is the Hasegawa reboxed for revell. Very nice kit with lots of details and very little fit issues.

FalconFan24 Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Ok, part 2: flat coat on, light dirt added in. Ready to bring the fuselage together. Sasha As, chaos07, KiwiZac and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFan24 Posted March 5 Author Share Posted March 5 Update Part 3: so I got bogged down with the fuselage. For some reason....this time around the tail to fuselage joint was extremely problematic. Lot's of sanding and rescribing done and I am still not finished. MikeC, Landrotten Highlander, MikeMaben and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFan24 Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 (edited) Update 4: unfortunately, I was not able to finish the kit in 2-3 days as I had hoped. My mom was diagnosed with Breast Cancer this past week. Today was the first day I was able to do some modeling. In tough times, modeling is such a therapeutic release and helps keep me grounded. So I was able to close up the cockpit, install the lower piece with the wing alignment part, and glue & fill the seams of the nose cowling piece. I also received the Ammo paint set. I am going to try it out on this kit. Edited March 11 by FalconFan24 MikeC, MikeMaben, Shoggz and 8 others 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Sorry to hear about your mum. Hopefully modelling can give you some semblance of solace. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really does provide some solace. I can escape and free my mind for a bit in something I truly enjoy and love.

FalconFan24 Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Final update: as you can see, the 109 build came to an end today. My clumsy a** dropped the model and why trying to scoop it up....ended up stepping on it instead. Sigh.....here lay it's final remains.

Sigh.....here lay it's final remains. Yikes, sounds like me. It looks fixable to me. I've broken wings and things off (more than once on the same model) and finished them up satifactorily. Don't give up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
