Chris ReimannThank you. I masked the outer rings, airbrushed the body color and cleaned the "lips" in the center with a cotton swab.

Bill NewcomerThat sounds like a much faster method. I painted mine with a toothpick.

Nagy-Meszler CsabaThe cockpit is very puritanical, but unfortunately there is not enough documentation on it. The fit of the parts is very poor and needs a lot of filling and sanding.

komorasMy biggest issue was fitting the seat and the mid portion of the wheel bay, had to add 1 mm plastic card on both sides. Looking forward seeing it done! 👍

Nagy-Meszler Csabakomoras, I encountered the same problem: the landing gear bay cannot be fitted where it is intended. I used a milling head to remove enough of it to fit.

gorbyInteresting aircraft, interesting build.
Incidentally, I would suggest 'Spartan' as a better way to describe the cockpit rather than 'puritanical'. 👍

Nagy-Meszler CsabaFinished. Unfortunately it has a few mistakes, but an interesting item for my collection.

Nagy-Meszler CsabaThank you!
Something I noticed after the model was finished: the drawing in the painting instructions shows a circular hatch or cover on the top of the fuselage, in front of the cabin. At first I thought I had sanded it down and not scratched it back, but in that photo, when it's not primed, you can see that it wasn't on the fuselage. I don't know if it was on the original plane.
Also missing from the right wing tip is a pitot tube or antenna, which is visible in the original photos, but I didn't notice it until too late.

Martin OostromCan't you strip the sprues as a whole of the paint? Dip them in a bath of paint stripper? Might be a whole lot easier than sanding each piece

bossy122Most of the pieces are under carriage, so they're not that visible......but I stay awake at night knowing there are seams and that they must be eliminated! I think I botched the body paint job and I hadn't noticed on its original project. I just went over the lint - think HAIR - with 600 to 2000 and that took care of it. Mostly, I just thought it was funny that whomever I bought this kit from had gone to that much trouble to paint pieces ON the sprues with a brush, only to be done over with a rattlecan OFF the sprues.

Martin OostromI feel your pain. I'm currently sanding tanks on a truck. Tanks that will never be seen, yet I've spent a few hours already on them.

bossy122The TS4 German Grey isn't nearly dark enough for the dash. Or, the actual color of the dash should be black, but the instructions called out for German Grey......I dunno, Tamiya.

BozzerSometimes, it's easier to use a thin Sharpie, for knobs and buttons. It dries fast, so if you make a mistake, you can touch up, more or less, straight away. I also use a Sharpie for window rubbers, etc

FZ01 2024* Neue Bausatzform 27 August, 05:50
Kesa TihoSo recently i got an idea. Estonia has an air force, and an air force has planes, there is most likely a model for every single military plane ever made, so i checked google and found a model of a Aero L-39 Albatros. The EAF (estonian air force) uses one. So i thought it would just be cool if i could build a Aero L-39 Albatros but instead of using the given decals i somehow create EAF decals for the L-39. So just wondering if anyone knows or can make decals for planes. (Sorry for rambling again i just had one of those 3 am thoughs that even Einstein would be perplexed by)

Nathan DempseyI could swear I've seen an L-39 kit with Estonian Air Force decals included. Maybe someone has a spare set out there.

Andrew PBeautiful! Excellent little kit, too.
How did you get it to sit on its nose? Mine is tail-heavy.
26 August, 12:49
Rob NieuwenhovenIf you have a look at the cockpit build photos, you can see all the lead shot. I stuffed it anywhere that wasn't visible!
