Assembling the fuselage. Hint: Use ultra-thin Cyanoacryllate glue
Cabine intrerior. Paint it before installing, dont forget to paint cabine inseide near to pilots’ door. If canopy doesn’t fit correctly, cut and sand as mentioned on last picture
I prefer a clear canopy. Although it’s not perfectly transparent, I think it’s more than adequate for this scale.
While the putty on the fuselage is drying, I’m assembling the trolley. It consists of eleven parts and goes together quite quickly. There are no tricks to it.
Let’s attach a tail to our birdie!
It’s time for the wings! Please note that the trailing edges are very thin, so I recommend protecting them before starting work—for example, as I did (see photo below). The wings are quite heavy, and to position them correctly and prevent sagging in the future, I’ve included a steel rod in the set.
Test primer coat. Most of the seams turned out perfect. Just a bit of filler is needed at the wing-to-fuselage joints. I masked the cockpit windows using Microscale Micro Mask, but it creates a very thin film that is difficult to remove later. I decided to try this method – I glued small pieces of wood on top of the mask so that I could later use tweezers to pull off the entire film by gripping the wood pieces. Let’s see how it works.
