Paulo Lopes Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Hi, my fellow modellers! Today I present you a WIP of a model, finished last November 2015, that was a real challenge, taking into account that is a "short run" kit and have a lot of corrections and scratch to do to make it accurately built. I liked the final result. In the end, I hope you like it too. (Sorry some comments only in portuguese) 3
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted February 10, 2016 Administrators Posted February 10, 2016 Seriously great modeling here! Love the wrapped hose and instrument panel fairing. Love it! Cheers, Jeroen
Paulo Lopes Posted February 12, 2016 Author Posted February 12, 2016 Hi, Some more pics of the WIP. cya! canopy, not cockpit 5
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted February 13, 2016 Administrators Posted February 13, 2016 Just love how the canopy hooks really fit into their corresponding holes. Superb modelling here!
General Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 I am impressed, Paulo. Seeing someone approach little "problems" the same way I do makes me smile. It is also nice to see on eof my favourite aircraft in large scale. Brigado!
Pappy915 Posted March 13, 2016 Posted March 13, 2016 Did you run into any issues with the wheel bays in the wing. Are the directions correct? I have heard that they are backwords. Thanks for any help. John
David Hansen Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 I like it a lot. Noisy little bugger, but a good trainer. Nice to see the wings of the FJ-1 Fury found a successful second act. This and the Vigilante were the Columbus OH divisions finest work. david
youngtiger1 Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Go Buckeyes!! Totally cool project. I just love these Navy trainers with Red and White paint schemes. Love the extra detail you are adding into your build. The cockpit looks fantastic! Keep up the good work
timvkampen Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Nice build. Lots of corrections...I have one in my stash...hmmm, wonder whether I am up to the challenge at some point...
Dennis.E Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 Beautiful, restrained, disciplined work Paulo - really great! I like the way in which you have weathered the cockpit interior, yet it remains 'tight' and doesn't 'look' weathered. Awesome!- Do you plan on weathering the exterior in the same manner?
