mustang1989 Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Looks like it's all coming together nicely there Warren! Man doncha just hate covering all that detail up? How much of the engine is gonna be visible on the finished build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedfactory Posted May 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Now have something resembling a plane....Had to strip the silver paint as it didn't stick to the model. Worst case of mold release contamination I have ever seen. Will have to wash it down before I repaint it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang1989 Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) It's almost got that weathered look on it as it sits. I figure you've already washed the parts down already once? Edited May 27, 2015 by mustang1989 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedfactory Posted May 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Nope, not washed yet. That is this weekends project and get the base coat of paint on it.

wedfactory Posted July 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 The engines on this kit are mini-model unto themselves. This is the rear engine and I am still short about 15% of the parts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
