Started building the Guillows BF-109 for the Yahoo Guillows Challenge. Used everything that came with the kit with no modifications. |

Cut bottom of rib profile first. Snug blank into jig. Line up indicated leading edge (blue arrow...which is the only constant point on all these ribs) and trailing edge through rear corner. |

James, here's what I used to cut the ribs...this time. Fairly rudimentary. Two "Sweeps" or "French Curves" and a simple jig to hold the blank. Blue tape is for photo. It'll change color magically throughout this "How to"! |

While cleaning out my storage unit this weekend I discovered this Revell 1/48 He 111H that I built about 15 years ago. It is the most recent plastic kit I have built to date and at the time was also my best build and paint job on a model, I was very proud of it. Interestingly, since my model is from the early 90's Revell intentionally left out the swastika on the tail, a decision they reversed in 1997. All the machine guns and other fine detail is snapped off so I think I should try to find a wooden kit to replace it with rather than another plastic one. |
