wdedig Posted March 4, 2017 Report Posted March 4, 2017 Simple out of Box Build and a few snapshots, Uschi EZ line for antenna (hard to see) Techmod Kit decals good except for wing national markings ,would not settle and had to be replaced. Testors Sand for main color a little heavy on exhaust stains ...my mistake Thanks for looking Cheers Bill
ghodges Posted March 4, 2017 Report Posted March 4, 2017 Nice one Bill! North Africa had some of the coolest markings on P-40s,especially when combined with the British markings used there. Congrats! GIL :smiley16:
WildBill50 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Posted March 5, 2017 Bill, Nice job...looks the part. Do you tie the line to each section or glue it? Seeing the spot where the lines from the wings meet the tail to mast it's hard to figure what you did. Inquiring minds want to know. Bill
wdedig Posted March 6, 2017 Author Report Posted March 6, 2017 Greetings Line construction 1. Drilled holes at wing locating and fuselage and Tail 2. Crazy Glued line to tail (allowed to dry..2minutes) 3. Crazy Glued line to fuselage (allowed to dry. overnight) 4. Crazy Glued line ends to wings (allowed to dry..overnight) 5. Touch of Glue on fusalage/tail Line. 6. Stretched wing line to slightly tighten and allowed wing line to touch glue on center line. Waited about 10 seconds for glue to grab. 7. Lines are tight all over. Cheers Bill
