Sorry, but I had to say it on the forum. Now, more than ever, I can understand such professional modelers defer to him. Thank you, DD. In this view, I'm starting to do a couple of things. I've decided to photograph the airframe against a black background to help bring our some detailing. I've already planked the lower wing and test-fitting onto the fuselage.

Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 09-Dec-15 16:16 Views : 454 Cutting up some small accessories to the stock portion of the gun. Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 09-Dec-15 16:12 Views : 394 Stock of the gun. The hole is when I accidentally pushed the pin too far in my attempts to simulate rivets. this is okay, since this part will be hidden. I apologize for the slightly blurry image.

Used left over plastic cut and scored to shape the stock. Then used a pin to push out some rivets. Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 09-Dec-15 15:59 Views : 402 Small front end was made from tubular strips of plastic cut down short. Used a pin to help located the holes followed by using a pin vise. Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 09-Dec-15 15:57 Views : 401 Starting to look like a Vickers... Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 09-Dec-15 15:55 Views : 418 Super glued each strip until the whole barrel was covered. Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 09-Dec-15 15:54 Views : 379 To simulate the long grooves on the main barrel, I cut short strips of .060" half-round plastic strips. The chose of thickness of the strips was purely arbitrary as it "looked just about right." Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 09-Dec-15 15:49 Views : 391 The tape was wrapped as many times necessary to achieve the desired thickness. In this case, it was just twice.
