Looks like it is going to be a fantastic model. Let me take a seat 🙂

Welcome, Robert! It's progressing slowly. Panel lines are been filled/sanded/rescribed, wing surface levelled and smoothed, landing gear scratched, etc. Can't help digging my own grave with every project 😉 But yes, in my head it's going to be a fantastic model!

Thanks, Pierre, and welcome! I first draw the lines on the surface with a mechanical pencil, then use Rosie the riveter freehand trying to follow those lines. For longer lines I use tape as a guide. The trick for me is to inmobilize the model while using the riveter, I use lots of blu-tac for this. Additionally having a source of light in front of you allows the rivets to be easily seen, which also helps a lot! Just find the right angle under which the surface reflects the light and there they are!

Wow great detailing. The C-415 will definitely look great when it's finished. 👍👍👍

Thank you all! Scribing and riveting are slowly progressing, though I have less time for modelling now... I'll do my best not to loose momentum!

Thank you very much, S M! I had to stop modelling for a while due to a new job and the changes involved, but hopefully this and other projects will be resumed eventually.

Album info
This is an upgraded version of the Canadair CL 415MP of the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency, as it was delivered in 2016 and before receiving its final white and red uniform.
Some new surveillance equipment was added and the aft doors were also modified on both sides, featuring this stunningly beautiful patchy scheme.
