Cracked the box today and got the fuselage together. I can see quite a bit of sanding in my future on this. For the scale of the model it's a big beast too.   |

Looking forward to this one! But get your sanding sticks because this one does not submit easily.
Best wishes,
Ian

Now this looks interesting, like the idea of the weathered look.
Has this kit got Atlantis decals as on the real thing or have you got to get them

Looking good Pete! And if you think that is big, try building the 1/72 scale on like I did!
Looking forward to seeing more.

Are you going to cut individual cube masks to draw the tiles?   Best wishes, Ian |

Cheers guys, Paul, it's not too bad just needs some care. Robbo, yes it's got atlantis markings. Ian, no way am I mucking about with tiles! Lots of filling and sanding have been the order of the day so far on this. Nothing major to worry about just lots of seams to smooth out. However the main parts are now sorted. As I'm making Atlantis as she is now there are a few things I need to make or add according to my refs. The biggest one is the thermal sheeting in the cargo area but I have a few ideas for this. Later on and I mean much later on I'll be adding the tiles using a set of decals from warbirds. Not cheap but hopefully they will help lift the model.       |
