A really nice, detailed model, but for my purposes most of it won't be seen. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 25-Aug-14 14:49 Views : 517 To prep for the new cockpit I cut away the kit's seat back with a sharp blade. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 25-Aug-14 14:47 Views : 470 I reshaped the tail area, and described the panel lines that were lost in the process. Unfortunately, these will be lost in the glassing and final finishing. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 25-Aug-14 14:46 Views : 464 The tail, mechanical openings are filled with either balsa or green florists foam, sanded then glassed over. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 25-Aug-14 14:44 Views : 434 The original wing (left) and the revised wing. The exposed foam becomes pretty fragile at this point. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 24-Aug-14 18:42 Views : 561 To make the model more sturdy, I'll cover it with glass cloth and this Minwax Polycrylic. It is water-based, and does not smell. Easy application and cleanup.

Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 24-Aug-14 18:40 Views : 450 The cockpit is not currently available, but I was able to find one on eBay. There is an old resin pilot, but it is very hard to find. I will make one using this guy as a starting point.

Some of the this will be filled or cut off. Locations for the horizontal tail fins and nozzle mechanisms. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 24-Aug-14 18:33 Views : 446 The embossing is pretty heavy handed, but will help later on. You can see some of the pebbly texture of the foam. I intend to deal with that in a bit. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 24-Aug-14 18:31 Views : 538 The cockpit.
