Little steps big steps that is the question...
Posted by pianodog on Thursday, February 5, 2015 9:19 AM

Hello everyone,

I am building a little Hasegawa Egg Plane version of the F/A 18 Hornet Blue Angels, it has a nice clear canopy that will submerge in Pledge, what are the steps to do this? Submerge in Pledge and then Paint the frame part of the cockpit or the other way around?

Thanks in advance.

My method-

1) dip in Future then let dry in a dust free place

2) mask canopy

3) glue in place

4) paint and then all weathering & topcoats

5) remove masking
