Pfuf Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 HI yes I wil when I have the putty make some more progress on the landingear and details. Today it started with a big fight the Ram air iflap are the easy part but first thing firts. The air intake I tink are a bit crude specialy the front of the part 2 hours of try to get a smooth edge there is not inside detail so you have to make that your self.

Pfuf Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 and 2 of them it is a strange so muce detail on so many parts and then this little thing I thing it did get lost forgoten to make it perfect. The outside of the tunnel is a bid roughe to so some sanding is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pfuf Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Now you can firts glue the ramair flaps like I did then glue the front peace of the air intake and if that done the back part to make it compleet. Now if you do this then you wil have a hard time to put the ram air flaps need tight fit. So just install them first and then do the big part with plenty of glue.

Pfuf Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 You have to be very patient and just do some dry fit afther you glued the ram air flaps in and do this when the glue dry's so you can move them about a bit. It is a bit frustrating walking around with this big part for a 10 minuts LoL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pfuf Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 And sfther al this I did gleu the front ram air flpat to the side wall so the gape is gone and I wil rescripe a little gape. I only use these little clamps to just use a very light forge on it nothing dramatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pfuf Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 So afther a working day and figth with the elements this is a very difficult part of the build I think and hope it feels very rigid there is some need for putty and sanding specialy the end peace. So I hope you are warned not to take this step to lightly don´t start this if you think just before bed time ore with a beer . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomcatFanatic123 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 That looks AWESOME!!!! Very impressive painting on the gear bays. Can you leave the gear bays out until after the model is painted and decaled, or do you have to install them earlier in the assembly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pfuf Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 Thx the gear bays need to be installed at the same time when the engines go in and the top peace comes on. johan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
