Skyediamonds1985 | 31-Oct-15 20:21 | I carefully cut the bottom keel and lowered the profile to reflect a more accurate profile if the real aircraft. I am aware that I'll have to cut out new fuselage formers to reflect the enlarged forward portion of the fuselage and this is to be expected. I'm keeping in mind that at this stage of planning, I'll be taking this model to a different level of detailing that is more than what the original kit calls for. |

Skyediamonds | 02-Nov-15 00:57 | Thank you Mr. DD. I will be drawing both inspiration from you & Meku. Mr Meku has been very generous to share his building experiences with his S.E. 5. Right now, I'm laying out the foundations for my build. This should make it easier & (hopefully) fun for everyone to follow. I'm also optimistic that the coming days, weeks, & months will serve to show such level of detailing doesn't require special tooling of even modeling skills. This project will be mostly about patience (lots of it) & simple imagination. At this point I am going to request input from our fellow VA members & guest to offer any suggestions they may feel worth noting. Thanking you in advance.-Sky |
