Title: 1/72 HE-111H.....................................(Completed 9 Oct 2014)
Post by: lastvautour on August 31, 2014, 06:41:08 PM
A new project started last time I visited the flea market. The second visit resulted in a bit of contour work.

Messy work area. In there are engine nacelles and plugs for the fillets.

Looking good, Lou.
I am just surprised that you shape the nacelles after you have fixed them to the wing.

Any specific reason for this?

It depends on how I felt at the moment. This model just begged to be shaped in place.

Wing filets have been carved and require final sanding before gluing the wing.

Excellent Lou, I love the colour scheme, desert is my favorite scheme, some very intricate masking carried out as well, great job. Best regards Paul J.

Thank you Paul. Yes the masking of the cockpit area was repeated several times before a satisfactory pattern was achieved.
