Re: Eduard 1/48 Hawker Tempest II

In the process of masking off panels to paint in a different metallic shade, I found that the adhesive from the Post-Its I was using reacted with the AK Extreme Metal White Aluminum in certain areas. So I sprayed on a layer of clear gloss (Tamiya LP-9) and them b...

Re: Eduard 1/48 Hawker Tempest II
Thanks guys! Seam work is one of those thankless jobs that we modelers have to deal with. It's important enough,from a presentation perspective, to spend a little extra time to make those noticeable joints disappear as much as possible. The brass flap inserts have been glued into place using extra t...

Re: Eduard 1/48 Hawker Tempest II
Canopy parts have been dipped in Future. https://i.postimg.cc/zvMwXNwB/IMG-5854.jpg Wings are glued onto the fuselage. Fit is pretty good except for the rear bottom joint, which will need attention. https://i.postimg.cc/hvhbBvd6/IMG-5855.jpg But the fit along the wing roots is good. https://i.postim...

Re: Eduard 1/48 Hawker Tempest II
Thanks of the comments! The wing tops have been glued on to the wing bottom. Like everywhere else, the fit was very good. https://i.postimg.cc/fb5pPfJT/IMG-5834.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/N0QZbzGz/IMG-5833.jpg The Eduard instructions clearly show the little gun barrel tips being inserted into the lead...
