REACTIVATION of the topic, the tender for the locomotive has arrived in the workshop and only the tracks are missing to make it complete. This is what the printout looks like but there is still a bit of detail and it will be visible during assembly. The railing is with the rungs.
-
Work in progress, decal applied.
-
Painting alternates with masking and this is the effect I achieved.
-
And the fine detailing done and painted. And I made the stripes on the tanks by applying yellow and taping the whole thing, then I made a cube out of LEGO blocks with a hole for the tank and slid it out to the right length and made an incision with a scalpel blade alone.
-
I've done a little bit of fine detail preparation. I am now wondering how to make the stripes on the tanks so that they come out even and straight. I need to find a simple patent for this.
-
Preliminarily the Gannet already looks like this at my place, I am now left with the fun of painting and the rest of the parts. I had to use a few drops of putty and the rest fitted perfectly, the geometry captured with LEGO bricks.
-
A fitting before assembly and everything fits.
-
The operators' cabin prepared to be enclosed in the fuselage but the door will be open so something will be visible.
-
The interior of the cockpit is ready. The cabin will be enclosed.
-
Yes there are resin doors in the kit and you just need to cut holes in the fuselage for them. And it will all be nicely visible. We'll see when the model is finished and from that it will be visible. I'm struggling on because there are more waiting in the queue.
-
Only one more door remains to be cut out and the hull can be painted and closed.
-
It's not my interest but I received a Gannet as a gift and I need to make one, so I'm building it straight out of the box. But yes I'm steaming and I will say it looks beautiful, such a beauty it will be.
-
Cabin interior pre-assembled and prepared for painting.

Another model on the workshop this time it is a Fairey Gannet AEW.3 in 1:72 scale from the company ‘Sword’. In the box, in addition to the frames, we have resin parts, a sheet of film and a mask, that is the model with extras. The decal sheet includes markings for two machines, the model to be built will be in box camouflage with HMS ‘Ark Royal’.

Thanks, you know every model is easy just with some the trowel takes longer. I for one have WWI models planned for later this year, I've already ordered myself a Caproni Ca.3 from Lukgraph in 1:48 and am waiting for its release.
