Thanks Bsyamato .Well both canopies are a mismold ! The Supersonic one is really bad
The other only the ends are missing so I'm stuck with that
I cut off the ends
Made some new ends from an old vac canopy scrap
Not great but once I add some canopy glue the seams will be gone
The basic build is ready for some paint

rtoo speed makes ugly results, too relax don't make results
Here is my little 1/72 ME 163 completed in the colour of the first ever rocket powered attack. Pilot was Wolfgang Spatte. Allegedly he was more than a tad ticked off at the groundcrew who decided red is a good colour for his plane! As soon as he landed it was orderd removed LOL!
The tractor was to "clean" so I just muddied it up a bit
The plane is depicted as having just been recovered, therefore it has no wheel dolley.
Theuns
Theuns, now that is a sweet looking build. Its the first time i have one of these in the red, and i rather like it.
I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so
On the bench: Airfix 1/72nd Harrier GR.3/Fujimi 1/72nd Ju 87D-3
great little piece Theuns
Thanx, yes it was a really enjoyable build with no problems atall. I also like the red, tends to stand out from the other drab builds in the case LOL!
p38jl,Bsyamato Thank you kindly
Theuns Thats some great back ground info about the color! The build looks simply awesome and love the ground handling dolley!Very nicely done Sir!!!
The base black is on and all the seams look tight ,as soon as its good and dry I can mask off the black nose and tip hinges and start spraying white.
Thanx guys. It will be hard to top the "tomato" foe colourfullness!
That Valkiri is looking just "WOW"
I hope the shop gives you some "bulk discount" for all the paint and glue it takes LOL!
Thuens... sweeet job !
The base white went down no problems
Was hoping to wet sand it down and have the black undercoat accent the panel lines,epic fail here.
Regrouped and decided just to respray the white put the decals down
Going with a Urethane clear top coat with some fast hardner

Hey Ninetails. Can i change my entry to the Planet Models 1:48 Bugatti 100 Raceplane? (I dont think there will be a problem since its the aircraft depicted in one of the badges lol)
"I am a leaf on the wind, watch how i soar"
Recite the litanies, fire up the Gellar field, a poo storm is coming
Check out my blog here.
Hey guys, I was gone for a while, but I'm back now,Taxtp, you can join, you gonna put the wings into a folded position?
Hey scorpio, it's okay, I'll change your entry.
With regards, Ninetalis.
Glad to see you back, we did wounder if you had gone due to the forum change.
My Chinook is now finished, so going to make a start on the Triebflugel.
In case anyone hasn't seen the kit, this is it
The pit is pretty bare. Ok, very bare. I will be adding some Me 262 PE and either a seat from the spares box, or failing i have a decent one, a resin He 162 seat.
The forum change was the biggest reason why I was gone so long, as I allready told Scorpio, I hate all the extra scrolling I need to do, and it's not so easy to see what threads have new posts, and is it me or did they change this whole backspace thing now?
Hi Ninetalis,
Wasn't going to fold them, do I need to to join this build ?
I am toying with buying a YF16 CCV instead, will let you know if I decide to change.
Well, you don't really need to, but it would be more fun if you did so when we all put our pictures together to see all these special planes, but its's okay, you can do it like that or build your YF16 or both (;
Hey Scorpiomikey,Since you're building that bugatti, here are some pic's I found that might help you out,
Look at the engine in the back, the engine is not lined straight with the fuselage itself.also not the lack of a tail wheel An amazing aircraft, with beautifull lines, kinda jealous of your kit actually...
Cheers for that ninetails. Its a really complicated setup. The pilot actually sat between the drive shafts.
The one thing im not clear on is the assembly of the canopy. All the drawings i can see show aluminium framing, or no framing at all. The photos show aged glue marks, which makes me think the canopy was glued together.
Another interesting note, the pilots forward vision was through a small hole in the dash. The restoration job having in the airventure museum has this covered over.
