The tailplanes and windshield And the skids. I had to remake them because the sag. I laminated the skids with cardstock, total 3 mm. I made an extra leg in front of the skids, as you can see in the pictures When I put the plane on the skids the body was to heavy and saged in the middle...

The electro-thingies I laminatet the round blue pieces to get a more glas-feeling. And mounted on the plane / Wilhelm

Some more engine-parts. I needed to strenghen the pipes that attache the engine to the body. I used rolled paper over a drinking-straw and then covered everything with the pipe-parts. I omitted the bends because they were to fiddely and teared easily And here are the engines attached to the...

and here are the repairs, I am satisfied with it, I took some artistic liberties And I moved the engine-holes where they should be... / Wilhelm

:headbange::headbange::headbange: I then noticed that I hade managed to switch place on the middle part. Because the engine parts did not aligne. But I have some ideas to clear this misstake More to come..... / Wilhelm

The wings are mounted. There was some missfitting and I had to reinforce the joints to get a good hold. I used spare parts ( the bands at the wingroots, last picture) to cover up the gaps that were reinforced. As I said before, the nosecone also had fittingproblems. I had to cut of some...

and on to the engines. I laminated the rings and made formers to this. / Wilhelm

Here is the whole body assembled. I started greebling the bands. This model is BIG, My cuttingmat is A3. / Wilhelm

I was not satisfied first so i made a new attempt. I was thinking of greebling a bit so I cut all the individual part and made tabs and in that way I hade a better fit of the parts. In the second picture you can se how I follow the centerline of the parts. The nose-cone was frustating to make...

I have been building this back and forth, inbetween other responsabilities. This build is a real challenge. Here is how far I have come. First of the wing. I had to make my one spars to give some stability to the wings and to have something to attach to the main body. When build the wing are...

Hello Just a head-ups.. :wave: There are a couple of new downloads over at PaperFactory https://ta7080.wixsite.com/paperfactory / Wilhelm

About the nosecone. That was my second attempt. The first one was without tabs but it didnt line up well. But in other cases the best aproache to petals is without tabs, I know.thumbsupthumbsup and I still hate petals ;);)

Now to the nose cone. I have to say that I hate petals :bulgeeye: I still have to tidy up the nose cone. / Wilhelm

Hello my friends :wave: This is how far I am with this. The formers are made. I had to adjust the width on some parts. Some of the formers you can see in the background in the second picture. See picture below. I followed the center line of the pieces ( the blue line ) to line up the parts...

This one is still alive ;) i have an aproach, for the moment i try to make formers, it is alot och trial and error :). Indeed a challenge. :):) I think i cut the edges of B2/ B3. will see how it works out. No pictures at the moment. / Wilhelm

I found a nice castle for download. It has nice texture and is easy to build. http://jumpifnotzero.free.fr/?./construire/chateau/index.php / Wilhelm

Thanks for the input, i have the same idea of cutting the parts. There will be a lot of dry-fitting on this model. But I like a challenge...;):lolsign:;) / Wilhelm

I started with the cockpit. I enhanced the dials and dashboard. I scratchbuilt the safety-belt. I used clear plastic for the dash-board and wind-shield To be continued...:wave::wave: /Wilhelm
