Another view of the engine
|
|
Photo etch fan blades... getting better! The blades look a lot smoother to my nekkid eye
|
|
My goal is to have engines that Juha would build. These, I think he would at least put on one of his planes, maybe not quite what he would build, but close. Nice dust eh? That's gone now
|
|
This is for Frank, just to let him know I am using that fuselage he sent my way! It is being built slowly but surely... Probably going to be TWA
|
|
Fully primed and sanded, ready for some more undercoats for the Alclad. With the metal finish, it is most important to have good surface prep!
|
|
Tape the outside of the windows, and you are ready for the quickest and easiest way to fill windows.
|
|
Here is the epoxy I use for the filling. I am sure you don\'t have to get it at Hobbytown in Carson City!
|
|
Just smear it on and work the bubbles out!
|
|
Tape off, a couple hours later
|
|
Not much putty needed to help the epoxy on the windows.
|
|
Almost complete, just need to add details and do minor touch up.
|
|
Test fitting of the flap guides
|
|
The -500 got plastic shims, 600 has the tabs intact from BraZ.
|
|
500 is ready for post-op and rehab, 600 needs some straightening
|
|
Delta/Western DC-10 almost finished
|
|
Delta/Western DC-10 nose. The Revell kit is good for a series 10, but the nose needs some work, I hope I got it right
|
|
The brass tubing helps hide the seam on the #2 engine
|
|
waiting for final touches
|
|
Look, another glider! She should be completed soon.
|
|
My Reno Air birds in varying states of completion
|
|
Photo etch detail set
|
|
Going for the "dirty bird" look on this one
|
|
My work area clean and ready. It won't be for long, it usually looks like a disaster. Bert has inspired me to clean up! That is a FedEx A310 ready for some scribing, and America West 757 ready for decals and engines
