Paul's Wyvern **DNF**

[PaulBradley]

Cheers, Tim.

I'm sure it was, Alan!

No additional work done yesterday.

Great work so far Paul, and respect to you for going for the rescribe option. These basic kits certainly bring the'scratch builder' out of us modellers.

[PaulBradley]

They sure do, Molly - old-school modelling, rather than the 'click to fit' modern stuff...!

Wowsers blitzing this one. Lovely cockpit.

I've not seen pictures of one with the wings folded, I like the little tip fold on it.

Cheers
Jim

Unfortunately - or fortunately, depending on your viewpoint - Frog didn't offer a folded wing option. Might try that with my Trumpy kit, along with the RPs and Suez stripes.

[TomW]

There might be a lot of years between the FROG kit and the Trumpeter one but the FROG still looks the part with some careful and sensible improvements. Good start Paul.

Nice to see this work! Good job with cockpit and exhaust pipes

[PaulBradley]

Cheers, guys.

No pictures at the moment, maybe later. The nasty sink marks around the nose were filled and sanded, the fuselage was re-scribed and I've just now glued the wing assembly to the fuselage. This is not a good fit and will need quite a bit of work later.

Just been fondling my Oxford - looks pretty simple, but I'll need to deepen the fuselage under the wings - that area doesn't look right at all. I've started a separate thread for this, and might make a start later.

Mind the Gap! Nothing that a little filler won't cure. Great work so far Paul.

Nice work Paul, handy to see what to watch out for when mine finally comes out of deep storage. If I remember Matt B did one for the 101 gems display.

beautiful aircraft and beautiful kit

[PaulBradley]

Cheers, guys!

Not much happened so far today with this one - been busy around the house.....

[Zee28]

Interesting subject, superb work on the cockpit Paul, liking this a lot.

[PaulBradley]

Cheers, Zee!

Not much done on this one today; I concentrated on the Oxford.

Still, I did discover that I needed more filler.....



Hoping to get the Sky coat on tomorrow.
