The Man has said 'no extensions' to the time, so I'm trying hard to blitz this one.
After the plastic card was added, [see above] plastic soup was dolloped on to it. This melds the repair into the kit plastic.
This was shaved down then fine fillers put on and sanded down, then even finer surface fillers put on - here awaiting final rub down;
I'm reasonably confident that it will be a good surface not showing the filling, when its painted.
Some other bits done
Clockwise from top left; the blower compressor has been sawn off and the chassis blanked off, the kit's fuel tank cover piece is weird, it stops short, so plastic card has been added, the solid plastic 'windscreen' has been sawn off the support, a clear plastic sheet will be made into a windscreen, a small block of plastic has been added to the bottom of the radiator - thats where there was a gap for the fuel/air mix pipes from the compressor to the engine run.
The build rages on. The main body is built now. Some painting of odd parts done.
Must go back to it now, those painted parts must be dry now.
Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..
Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.
