Oh why, Airfix?

Making a left turn without the engine...

And with the engine! Panel lines are (partly) filled with Mr.Surfacer 500. Airfix tends to exaggerate these things.

I cracked the windshield, now I'm making a new one out of a transparant cover of some product.

Installing it with PVA, then CA glue. The starboard side is attached with two component resin glue, to optimize my experimenting with different glues.

Bollocks! Polishing fluid krept inside the cockpit. I had to remove the canopy, clean and replace without breaking the three piece windscreen.

But I reinstalled the canopy succesfully and primed the aircraft. Looks always pretty in prime!

To make the final coat more interesting I use Uschi's airbrush stencils with white and black.

With the final coat and decals

Painted spinner will be cut in half. Sprayed with black while spinning in the motor tool.

I've managed to find a pic of a five bladed prop and printed it (to scale) on a transparent.
![Album image #16 Album image #16](/albums/img/0/6/4/1405064-48098-83-720.jpg)
The transparant was glued between the spinner halfs.

I'm not satisfied with the print of the propeller so I will finetune it and try again.

It looks alright though...
