Looks like this tiny kit will receive quite a lot of modifications. 👀

Thx for interest. I hope to get some result in the end... started work on the front landing gear.

Scratching gear details in 144th scale? I'm in, this is beyond what I could even imagine 👍

Started soldering the other wheelwellcovers.. pe parts differ a bit from kit parts dimensionally. Don't if they are based on the real doors or what is going on now... Checking everything to see if it is a big deal when positioned open (it's on the underside)...

12 July 2022, 11:36

Bart Goesaert
Wheelbaycovers soldered... ready to clean

13 July 2022, 21:13

Bart Goesaert
Dryfit... PE is too large it seems.. will build the rest first and see what can be done after a general dryfit...

Thank you guys..

16 August 2022, 07:25

Spanjaard
holly molly.... how do you keep those tiny pieces in place?? glue or soldered. amazing

16 August 2022, 07:41

Bart Goesaert
thank you Spanjaard, this has been glued.. everything is a bit to close to be able to solder. for the tiniest parts, I put the part on a knife, then apply some slow curing glue on the tip of the missile. drop the part in place. put it straight and fix with CA...

17 August 2022, 09:45

Matthew A
I'd be terrified of coughing and lossing the parts forever

17 August 2022, 12:42

Spanjaard
Thanks Bart. They look amazing

17 August 2022, 13:53

Bart Goesaert
@Matthew: spareparts are provided... and luckily a lot of extra's to compensate for the ping... and in summer during a heat wave... no need for sneezing

17 August 2022, 17:17

Spanjaard
good, because sneezing will probably not just send the small parts flying, but even the completed missiles 🙂

17 August 2022, 19:28

Spanjaard
Mine should be arriving this week, after seeing this beauty, I could not stop myself from ordering the Flanker. I have not yet but the courage to order the missiles from shelf oddity....

19 September 2022, 20:04

Bart Goesaert
Enjoy that one. It is a nice one. Put it aside for a bit to get a clear view again...
