Hello all Started the rear compartment. I had to form the cover by two walls, which was not an easy task. Finally I managed to form it, but if the part wouldn't be covered by thick layer of Americans finish, it would be too flimsy. There is no former inside. Pump compartment was glued to rear...

Whhaaatt??? Cool!

Thanks!

Hello hello and welcome back. I like how you said it's a big part about something that is smaller than a peanut, a pealed one. :-) Great work!

Hello all I finished the pump compartment by adding the pipes, pressure gauges and valves turn handles. The red tubes were made by tightly rolling regular office paper, glued and colored red with Carrioca felt tip pen. Nothing too difficult just need to be careful because of small size

Hello all. This weekend I didn't advance on the model too much, just started the main pump compartment. Nothing too difficult here. Only day after I have noticed that there is a water drop on the part. This will not be seen after closing the compartment, so I won't redo.

Thanks. As the song goes, we've only just begun ;)

Thank you, Snake.

Thank you!!

Hello all. I disassembled the frame and removed the steps and fuel tanks, fixed the beams and attached the crossmembers and the other parts. So, the frame is fixed.... UHU glue really rules here. After the fix, I moved on and attached the grill and wings part to the engine compartment.

Oh, man...

Thanks Thegreek270.

Thank you for kind words!
