Nice work Ian. I've got exactly the same gap in my kit at the forward fuselage underside.Filled mine with Squadron green.

Coming along nicely there Ian.

[Guest]

It is coming along we'll Ian, nice cans and paint work. Scribing looks great too. I had the same gap problem fixed it with filler and a lot of sanding now I know it would have been quicker doing what you have done.

[papa 695]

Sorry it's been a while since my last post, but had to decorate the son's bedroom ( the wifes orders ) Intakes on and some Squadron green to hopefully make them seamless

Nice work Ian.Those intakes are a pretty bad fit.We've all had to use filler on them.

[Guest]

good save on the intakes,though mine were bad after my own mistake lol

Looking good Ian.

It looks like I have missed out on a lot of fun going for the Hasegawa kit. The fit was pretty good and I only had to fill a few small sections where the top and bottom fuselage meet.

Nearly there Ian. Good work mate.

[papa 695]

Nearly forgot i needed to change the tail shape from this [ATTACH]61793.vB[/ATTACH] to this [ATTACH]61794.vB[/ATTACH] so i filed the end down and cut the tip off then with some plastycard did this [ATTACH]61795.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]61796.vB[/ATTACH] needs cleaning up when all dry and two little fins one each side to add just under the new part

Bit of major surgery there Ian.

[mossiepilot]

Been watching this come together and it looks great. I am hugely impressed with the rescribe, you'll have to do a tutorial.
