Yup, Alan will, in about a week\ said:I believe the lack of dihedral is fairly well known with this kit. Someone somewhere will have detailed the fix, I suppose.

My 1/72 Lancaster is in a box, with wings separate, which is a shame. I am thinking of hanging it from the ceiling of the spare room, like a mobile. Near the ceiling it might not collect much dust.\ said:This is very interesting Alan, I'd like to build one of these except I haven't the room for it!
I've got a tube of Squadron Green filler reserved for my Spitfire build!.\ said:Well I've been doing the filing on this over the last few days and it's not easy considering the size of some gapsView attachment 95606 Those fines on the top of the wings look out of scale to me but that could be the size of it View attachment 95607 the front of the canopy has a fair size gap on the starboard side and the front View attachment 95608 you have to fill in two of the mg apatures and that takes a bit of build up to get them flat , I still have work to do here View attachment 95609 the Aboukir intake takes quite a bit of filling and seeing as this is not in the instructions it's best to take a look at photos to get the position correct View attachment 95610 a very large gap here on both sides that just would not close up so I filled it instead and I'm hopping my paint job will cover the worst of it
Is that all, I'm getting a box of polyfilla, just in case................\ said:I've got a tube of Squadron Green filler reserved for my Spitfire build!.
Do you think that once the oil has dryed a very fine dry brush of aluminium on the rivets might look good mate?\ said:Looks fine Alan
Polux , on my 109 E-4, all the panel lines & chipping were done with coloured pencils - no paint at all! I've done the same on my 1/72 Typhoon which I'll be posting soon\ said:I'm waiting for my model...but I want to try with an aluminum pencil... Maybe can work!! But I'm not sure!!!I will try some different painting options on my Typhoon
