    Vacuform machine arrived. Can’t wait to tey it out

    Instructions say nothing about seatbelts for the bombardier, but i gave him some.
  3. JeroenPeters
    Even this pushrod needs to be lengthened
  4. JeroenPeters
    Mind the gap! This whole set is A JOKE. Every single part needs to be seriously altered or completely remade. The rear upper part has serious shrinkage OR the side parts have. Either way: more scratching is needed.

    Painting and fitting the Aires parts. Shite fit. Probably due to shrinkage and it being… well.. Aires. Also remade the sanded away detail in the MDC interior. Almost fits. Almost.

    So… not being happy with the resin MDC transparent parts, i 3D printed a mold for the upper canopy. I bought Evergreen transparent sheets in 0.2 and 0.4 mm. I’ll heat up a piece and pull it over my mold.

    Stick installed. Wheelbay painted in aircraft aluminum from Alclad2.

    Hard to capture in a decent photo, but all the detail is there
  9. JeroenPeters
    Better.

    Really was not liking the KG13C control stick Aires provides. Downloaded a decent file for the handle and drew the rest myself. Jist picked them out of the printer and they are curing right now. Picture below is the resin Aires version i abandoned.

    More work on the pit. Seatbelts done, wrinkled and weathered with pigments. More levers installed. Getting there.
  12. JeroenPeters
    You are correct! But the release handle is still on my PE fret. I will install it after fitting the pit, since it will be easily knocked off. The handle you see is red as well, but looks yellow since you see it from the top in the pic and shines metal. I’ll add some extra red to that as well. Cheers!

    Starting to look like a pit
  14. JeroenPeters
    Slowly adding detail to the pit
  15. JeroenPeters
    First paint in the pit. Mixed my own RLM66 to match the Eduard coloured PE. Much more stages to go, but it’s a start. Also found in my stuff original me262 breaker switch lettering. If that makes sense. I encircled them in one of the most useful me262 books i have for a modeller.
  16. JeroenPeters
    Combining the Aires resin cockpit with Eduard coloured PE and rudder controls. The PE needs some adjustment but nothing major. My me262 control panel provides some mojo.
  17. JeroenPeters
    Wasnt happy with the rudder pedals. Aires lets you install these waaay too wide. And Aires does not provide the whole assembly. Scored a few of these to make life easier.

    Still trying to make the floor fit. Shrinkage all over the place. Removed all the floor detail on order to sand everything flush. Then i’ll have to scratch the detail back into place. A bit worried about the transparent parts.
  19. JeroenPeters
    Fighting the shrinkage. Adding shims to the sides of the floorbed. Bought the Eduard zoom set for the Revell kit and hoping it will fot the Aires resin pit. We’ll see
  20. JeroenPeters
    Measuring the kit section of the engine so i can fully replace it
  21. JeroenPeters
    Isolated the engine part that I need and modifying it so it is suitable for 3d printing.
  22. JeroenPeters
    So. The floorbed also shows shrinkage. Almost 2mm on both sides. Will need to fill this out.
  23. JeroenPeters
    I used the Trumpeter bulkhead. Flipped it. Filled it. And used Evergreen to make the ribs.
  24. JeroenPeters
    Talking about 3D models. Just bought this file of the net. I will print the forward section in order to open up the top cowling of one of the engines.
  25. JeroenPeters
    The bulkhead has major shrinkage and can’t be used. See in the pic: the one on top is the MDC resin. The lower Trumpeter. I will make a 3D one and print it. The whole floor has shrinkage too. This was supposed to be a quick build.
