Congrats on your first flight Ramstein. I won't be getting mine done before the weather goes bad here, so I'll be taking my time and be ready for next spring.
Here's my latest scale mods. I made some exhaust blast guards out of thin plastic (picked up at the hobby shop). Paint match was done with some stuff I had laying around. I will coat everything with Polyurethane once I am done detailing. They turned out pretty nice even though the exhaust sticks out more than it should to be scale.
I also started on my gear doors. I found that the plastic pieces provided in the kit for strut covers fit over my Sierra gear and make for a nice way to mount the plastic doors. I plan to add a rubber band to the lower part of the door so it will hold it into the wing when the gear is retracted.
Hello,
How did you make your wheel bay. Did you use a plastic bottle or something. Please let me know, as I use the same retracts and wheels as you.
Regards,
Eric Schumacher, Netherlands.
