Some progress pics I promised to post couple of weeks back (was too busy at work)
1. Length correction - 4 mm added in the middle. Now with CC nose upgrade + 4mm of plastic in the middle full length is 39cm 5mm.... Should have added 5mm
The ammo/avionics bay fairing corrected also
2. Panels correction - each panel was cut out from foil. Rivets made with needle from back side.
In some places (like around this mesh screen on doghouse) I used my cheating method))))) To avoid "wrinkling", insted of covering the whole thing with foil, I made just a little oval-shaped piece where rivets should be. Then I put some putty around the edge to smooth it.
3. One more BIG scoop which is MISSING in the Academy kit
4. Intake customizing
Thats about it for now... I wish I had more time to spend on it((((
