| i jumped ahead before i read this. an cut all this little panels on to the form an strings. what a job that was it came out a little patchy an not a smooths fit as this one. but i think that once i use a filler an primer that hopefully it will look at right |

| Hi mdmorgan37, Yes I did cut away some of the formers. If you notice the side of the fuse, the 1/16 balsa stringers run front to back. This is where I trimmed the formers. All the other places I just filled in between formers. |

| Yes Evan your right, George has created a beautiful plane with incredible detail. This was build as a show model. Something that you would hang from the ceiling/roof like a plastic model. Sometimes we use discarded items to create parts of the plane.

| Verry nice BS... Panel lines are very time consuming...but worth the effort. |
| wingspanner, Comment for image # 7464 | 01 Aug 08 11:40 |
| Yes logan youre right.
Poppy gives a little tutorial on adding panel lines in his F6F Hellcat build if my memory serve me right.

He uses a Fabre Castille pen masking tape and a 6inch plastic ruler. Or you can also use a product called Chartpak tape which comes in a variety of widths.

I believe DD used this once...
Hope this is of some help. I save the links of tips that these great builders give us in my favourites folder. The last time I spoke to James he was thinking of creating a tutorials page, but he's a busy man... |

| What do you guys use to make your panel lines? It looks like a fine point sharpie but i'm not sure. |

| Barnstormer this bird is most beautiful. Bravo!! |

| Nice setting for a beautiful model! |

| Nope, no working rudder just seperate pieces glued together to give the appearance of a working flight control. |
| mdmorgan37, Comment for image # 7755 | 05 May 08 20:10 |
| ok thanks, i thought that was a working rudders an it had ssomekinda hinge in it |
| SteveM, Comment for image # 7755 | 05 May 08 19:37 |
| mdmorgan37, take a look here to see the structure of the rudder. BS will have to tell us how he covered and attached the rudder to the vertical fin. |
