Thanks Ray.\ said:Looks good man
Thanks Dougie ........ Quick? It's taken me years on this one off and on ....... It's spent most of that time in the box. I pull it out when I have nothing else on. This time I was waiting on a Mig21 kit. But now I've finally found the Mojo again for the Lambo I'll see it through to the end.\ said:nice one, the build looks good so far, I wish I was building this quick!
Thanks Amos........I'm determined to finish it this time out. But I'll be glad to see the end of it.\ said:Coming together very nicely.... Looks great so far
The doors are in three parts. Inner Middle and outer. The inner door panels are separate and not a problem. They are black and painted. It is the middle panel that is the difficult one as i want to get the edges and about 2mm of colour all around the edges .... The "up and over" mechanism gets sandwiched between the middle and outer panel ......... and would be easier painted as an assembly, but not so easy with the doors on....... and the other end of the up and over mechanism goes into the door pillar which really has to be in place before paint goes on........ and I can't see a way around it.\ said:That is looking nice Peter
Not sure on what to do about the doors I can't see what you mean but couldn't you just paint the inside and sides before fitting them ?
Nooooooooo what's missing can't you scratch build the part.This as been an epic journey it can't finish like this it would be criminal\ said:................ The Lambo has ground to a halt......... I'm Gutted. There is a bit missing.
I'm going to scratch a part for both sides I think John. I've had a delve into my bits box and I've found four curved undercarriage doors I reckon with a bit of shaping I can make something that'll fit behind to give the concave profile of the vent. I rough cut one and I reckon it'll work............ I don't think the inside will matter too much as it wont be visible even with the engine cover open............ It might not end up exactly how Fujimi intended, but I reckon I can get it damn close......... Well see what a fresh perspective brings tomorrow.\ said:Nooooooooo what's missing can't you scratch build the part.This as been an epic journey it can't finish like this it would be criminal
