Cheers folks 👍
Jed, I think you'll find those "credit silhouettes" are better known as victory markings... 🙄
On the desk, another 190, this time an A-8, is taking shape, again an Eduard Weekend kit, and again falling together in viceless fashion 🥱
Just about ready for paint, wheels, canopy and decals... that's a weekend job and seeing as tomorrow's Saturday...😎

We don't muck about around the Works...😳
Cockpit innards assembled... 🤓
Then painted and installed into the fuselage, which is then assembled and clamped whilst the glue dries...🧐
While that lot's drying out, the wings and engine nacelles are assembled... 🙄
Then glued onto the now dried fuselage, following which the tail surfaces are assembled and added to the fuselage, starting to look like it might fly now...🤔
That's it for the morning shift at the WWorks... having the rest of the day offf, catchyas tomorrow... 😎

Nearly dun now, next stop, the paint shop...
Wheels, props and canopies after that, followed by underwing greeblies and a couple of aerials (assuming I can get them off the sprues in unbent and intact condition !) 😖
Main undercart legs were complex with a few finely moulded struts, but gave no problems with assembly (after I worked out a way to assemble them in situ, and not as indicated by the instructions) 🤯
Next time you see this one, it'll be dun and headed to the display shelves... 😎

Cheers Guys... 👍
Just cos I felt like a brief diversion...spent yesterday creating sawdust, cutting 6x1 inch down to 3x1 inch via the bench saw, then chopping it to various sizes, before assembling it into these....Does help to use a chop/drop saw to get the cuts at 90 degrees, makes it much easier to assemble things square ! 😎
Thems are 4ft x 18 ins (1.2m x 450 cm for the digitally inclined) got the bits chopped for 3-4 more of them to be assembled today... 😀
Wot am I up to ? 🤔 I'll tell you as soon as I know, there's at least 3 ways I can go with these from here... 😈

I like a little mystery behind a well thought out project!

Post by WardWorks on Aug 14, 2024 18:39:24 GMT -6
The mystery continues... cos I ain't fully worked out wot I'll do with them yet ! Whichever way I decide to go will be revealed sooner or later, its on a lo-o-o-ng backburner 🤔
Next victims will be Me-109 F's, a pair of 'em...Eduard 72nds...😈
Starting shortly - just about to make a cuppa, then hit the desk 😎

Cockpit innards assembled and painted, then installed into a pre-painted fuselage half...🥱
Here's the other kit, assembled a few stages further than the above..its the one I'll be proceding with from here..🙄
Nothing happening here over the weekend, Supercars on the box from Tassie 😎

Starting to looklike it might fly now...🤔
I do love multi-part wings, with seperate flaps, aelerons , radiator flaps and leading edge slats - NOT ! 😖 🫨
They're absolute so-and-so's to align in the up/retracted position, so the wings are clean, not broken down as they'd be for landing, and not as parked on the ground...🤬
