To see build logs for my models: http://goldeneramodel.com/mymodels/mymodels.html
Primer airbrushed on.Took a lot more than expected!
Unfortunately,the cowlings were missing from the kit so I had to make them.I wrapped a piece of .20 styrene around a 13 mm socket held in place with a rubber band.I carefully applied cement to hold it together.For the front I turned them by chucking plastic plates into my Dremel and holding them against a file at medium speed until the were round and of suitable diameter.Then I glued the parts together and installed them after the engines were installed.Took awhile but it worked.
Floats installed .
Golf frustrates me!Mark Twain once said that Golf is a good walk spoiled.I concur but I do like Putt Putt!
I'm really impressed with this.
I seldom try to assemble vac's- ranks right down there with playing golf.

Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
Empennage installed.
Mounted up the wings with a brass tube through the fuselage .set the dihederal with a couple of stain cans.
So many people say that! Once you learn how it really is not a big deal!
Looking good Phil. I just don't have the bravado to try a vac kit!

God, Family, Models...
At the plate: 1/48 Airfix Bf109 & 1/35 Tamiya Famo
On deck: Who knows!
I got this one on the Bay for 20 bucks!
Nope one of the guys on one of my Facebook Groups sold it to me!
Great subject ! Looks like a neat project, I'll be following. Where did you score the plane, Ebay ??
I decided to try something different and traced around one of the fuselage halves and cut it out ..then I glued it on.Joined the halves together and it is Rock solid. There is a raised spine that I will grind down with a sanding drum in my Dremel.I will leave the raised section at the tail joint for a secure mechanical connection.
Mocking it up to scratch build some sort of cockpit detail..
Oh thanks for the heads up on the prop blade configuration!
Yes but I like the fact that the plastic is on the heavy side....much easier to work with and the parts are very straight!
Well you sure know a challenge when you see one. Various online posts say Archer carried the Sutcliffe line for a bit.
Three-bladed props on 1 and 4, four-bladed props on 2 and 3.
Cut out the fuselage halves and cut out the portholes and hatches.
