Poppy i am really enjoying your build pictures. I have a question about your Hellcat. What did you use to cover the 1/32 balsa covering?
poppy, Image # 352508 Jul 07 07:08

Balsa filled and primed.

Sounds like a good idea, John. I'll have to try it on next build.

I dab clear nail polish on instruments, thick enough it resembles a lens, works fast.

Thanks for showing your research material,it will help me when and if I decide to do a Hellcat.

If you can model the rest of your cockpit photo too....Wow. Excellent job.

That looks REALLY good!

Instruments sandwiched between balsa and plexilglass, painted charcoal, bezels outlined w/india ink pen. Knobs are pin heads and brad nail.

Great looking engine detail. You are inspiring me and I'm sure a lot of others.

Just a picture. I will use this as a patern.
poppy, Comment for image # 349605 Jul 07 19:24
my mistake. That's a 1" balsa block.
poppy, Image # 349605 Jul 07 19:23

Tail cone: 1/2 balsa block, cut carved, sanded to shape.

Yikes! how'd you do that? It looks great!
poppy, Image # 349505 Jul 07 16:38

Cockpit is on the way.
poppy, Image # 349405 Jul 07 16:37

Now for balsa fill and sanding(lightly).
poppy, Image # 349305 Jul 07 16:36

Engine and cowl in place.

Engine detail. Splashed silver between cylinders to replicate 2nd row of cylinders.
poppy, Image # 349205 Jul 07 15:13

Engine and cowl showing supercharger duct. Top of duct will be interior green.
poppy, Image # 349105 Jul 07 15:11

3/16 blocks added to firewall for proper engine depth. Supercharger duct added to cowl.
