Thank you Doug.
The "hood" is glued together as well as the fins of the radiator and the radiator. Joints between airframe and hood were repainted. Adjustment is very rough. However this type of circular hood is common on the planes of WW2 ( isn't it?). This one does not pose so much problems( on the plane of WW2). Eduard will seriously have to think about question next time....     The hood is a bit brought forward towards right and the fins of the radiator are not therefore wholly vertical. The gate is correctly put in the ring. However the stem under the radiator is not in the centre and I should have put the hood even more towards right...... So many splendid pieces of plastic which gather so badly, it is so sad...

it will be necessary to paint pneumatic tube in light grey (?):
 The aircraft propeller is painted in ink brown " prince august "and hazelnut in the brush but became too dark. I would do again it without doubts.  A+ |

Tire is grey hu129 weathering with pastel and oil paint.
  Machine gun are a little too big (?). Painting with gun metal. When dry, grey blue "diluted" with airbrush. The mantle is grey. Black and grey oil paint with a little sponge to make marks on the mantle. The breech is black, dark grey. Edge (arris?) are rubed with 0.5mm Pencil graphite. Every parts of are not put on the machine gun. It's very difficult to lign up mantle and breech. Mantle is glued first on the plane. MG is too short (1mm), but it's too late.

I forgot....
envisage some (a lot of) mastic to put under the two small perforated hoods which covers cylinder head of the motor. You can re-sharpen them but then, they become too flat... I used some "miliput" mastic with a brush and water. Good luck. |
