Mish Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Made a start on this a few weeks ago but forgot to post here. Started on the HGW Sutton Harness And today I finished the harness And reassembled the seat back into the cockpit. And the side panels going on And all buttoned up 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted August 31, 2015 Administrators Share Posted August 31, 2015 Thats a great start! The only nit pick is to try to drape the seatbelts a bit more against the seat. It would make it look more natural. Are these HGW or Radu's? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingco57 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Good start Mish, What is your opinion about the Revell Spit? Cees 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mish Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 Good start Mish, What is your opinion about the Revell Spit? Cees Not as good as the Tamiya (yes I know it's a later Mk) but vakue for money it's great I have to say that I think it needs a little AM resin and PE throwing at it I've got another to build and so far I'm not put of building it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingco57 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Agreed Mish, The past few months a great number of finished Models have been published on the web, with very nice results too. And the price is an absolute bargain. Thanks, Cees 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One-Oh-Four Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Nice progress, Mish! I have the model too but can't seem to locate the Barracuda resin I bought for it.... probably something to do with how tidy I file these things away.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mish Posted September 21, 2015 Author Share Posted September 21, 2015 Finally got back to the bench on Sunday and made some progress; rudder and tailplanes on, wingtips and lower engine cowl. Small amount of Mr Disloved Putty required in the joins. More next weekend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodshedwings Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Well done! Looks like you remembered to fit the prop spindle before cementing the fuselage halves together. I will have to retro-fit mine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingco57 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Good progress Mish, Will you be using masks for the camouflage or spray them freehand? Cees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mish Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 I've got some masks that I'm reviewing for a friend who has just started making them so I will be trying them out. It'll be a first for me as never used any masks before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
