ajcmac Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 Thanks Rick . Very nice work my friend!!! Are you gonna create further detailing at the engine? The engine will stay as it is. My ability to scratch is low. I tried but just missed to ruin everything. Maybe next and before gluing all the pieces. It is in fact amazing in terms of fit. After three sets mounted in separate air ducts underneath the radiator and the engine and it fits without fail. Cockpit, engine and rear air ducts and air ducts under the engine nothing was pasted. However fittings without fail. And finally the fuselage, glued. I started the wear on the propeller. Air ducts under the engine.

cib2265 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Looks fantastic! I have this kit sitting on my "might build next shelf" as my first 1/32 and am so looking forward to it... How did you weather that prop - looks extremely realistic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you weather that prop - looks extremely realistic! cib2265 The wear of the propeller was done with Tamiya XF-63 very dilute. I applied first at the leading edge of the blades and then some perpendicular lines also on the blades. Finally dry brush with the X-11 Tamiya (very dry brush). I applied after the chipping also with x-11 but did not like. I'm painting the blades again. Engine compartment and engine all set.

ajcmac Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks Towerpower . I completed the flaps and ailerons. Horizontal stabilizers. The rudder. I started the construction of the landing gear. Finally I glued the wings to the fuselage. Regards ajcmac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajcmac Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 I returned to paint the propeller black. The chipping was not as wanted. Based on this picture, I know it's not the Ol Flak Joe but it's the same squadron, I wear on the propeller hub. Regards ajcmac 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
