That’s looking very good.

How did you make the domed rivets?

I have a rivet punch set they make domed rivets from 0.6mm to 2mm

This is looking very good Paul do you make the handles/tie downs with a proper bender tool or just pliers?

Andy thanks mate. I made a little tool. A cheap pair of flat tweezers with two strips of etch sprue on one face and a single piece on the opposite side. this produces the shape then when cut to length the ends are flattened with some smooth pliers. HTH.

Some more work on the fighting compartment. A bit of PE added and some more tie downs. One piece of the etch and a big piece by etch standards pinged off in to oblivion, so made replacement from pewter and a strap from the spare PE draw. Given the issues I have been having the parts went together fairly well.







cheers

Just had a catch up. More great work. The detail work is outstanding.

Fabulous work Paul, and I thought the model I am working on was fiddly!
