Grunhertz Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 So this is next on the bench, Revell HE219. I know it has issues and I will do something with the landing gear. I have a set of HGW belts ordered for it. I'm not sure which one I'm doing yet 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grunhertz Posted October 24, 2018 Author Share Posted October 24, 2018 Soooo these arrive from the Czech Republic today they worked out cheaper direct including postage than buying in the UK. I liked them so much with the tempest I'm addicted 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grunhertz Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share Posted October 28, 2018 so I've made a start, not much apart fro removing the moulded on seatbelts and starting the painting process 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grunhertz Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 more progress on this, the front office is now done and I have the fuselage closed up the whole thing is now drying fully before i do some more. I had to create some imaginative ideas to get 90g of weight in the nose so made a mould from tin foil filled with melted solder as can be seen with the big lump that i epoxied into the gap between the cockpit and the main spar 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Nice pit, Grunhertz and a lot of the fine work will be seen, because of the big glasshouse. Cheers Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Rob One good looking front office and a very creative way of adding the nose weight. Keep ‘em comin Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grunhertz Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 Well a couple of things firstly what looks like a great idea by having top and bottom panels separate means having to fill them along the seams so double the cleaning up. Also the armoured glass doesn't fit in the canopy so this needed lots sanding down to make it fit. I then started the wing assembly and I could then see how bloody big this is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators JeroenPeters Posted December 10, 2018 Administrators Share Posted December 10, 2018 It is big! And cumbersome. Hard to handle. My 219 is in the same stage. Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
