Maybe check your references thanThanks Rick, I had actually forgotten about that!!! (Doh).
Just noticed on RN Kings, the tinting is predominantly blue!! But as mine is a RAF King - Green it will be!!
Landing gear is a grand fix. For the next one, ASW SK, I'll remember that one. Obviously the Junglie wouldn't need it. Mentioning Junglies, the upper canopies are a light green, however, on all my pics of ASW Kings they are a lightly tinted blue.
Frustrating!
It has annoyed me Chris but not to the point of binning it!! As I said to Pete - 'frustrating'. Just ordered some filler, somehow I didn't think Pollyfilla or plaster would suffice!!!!
I think the reason I get annoyed and frustrated is I don't have the skills yet, (or materials), to fix any 'glitches' I make or encounter. Knowing the work rounds are half the battle I would guess! I ordered some Mr Surfacer from John, it seems to have worked for a few on here so I thought I'd give that a go! Nothing ventured nothing gained and again - all part of the learning experience!!!
Must admit, being on here I have learned a lot, I just need to put what knowledge I'm gaining to practice. The guys on here have been invaluable. I would have just dived in, glued it together and daubed paint over it. Seeing what can be done has driven me to slow down, and take a bit more time to tidy up the parts and make for a better fit.
YES Doug if you get a prob dont get annoyed just sit an calm down an ask the guys on here an as sure the sky is somtimes blue you will get help an an answer to them probs an no ive not been away from tiger was goin too but just had to fix the motor back in place in the hull just as well i made the hull strong an as regards about the eletrics was talkin to a boaty mate today an he said dont take that 30 amp esc out of my norfolk as he said just wire up all 4 motors to the 30 amp one ive already got in tiger but the bueaty of this esc is that its got controll screws in it for power settin so i can turn down how much power goin through it an it will be proted by 30 amp fuse so if too much power then the fuse should blow till i get the right settin in the esc an im doin this tomorrow but got too be carefull with this eletronise esc as they are like gold dust as they not made anymore an john (wotan ) is a figure painter an very good too an he says he will attempt to paint me a badge for tigers bridge but its only a cetimeter tall so gonna be difficult
WOW Guys the badge is only a centimeter high an at that small scale i doubt that the 3D would harly show plus i havnt got a freind who does 3D im afraidI've been scouring a few sites looking for decals of either HMS Tiger or the 814 the Flying Tigers 1/72 - no joy so far.
That's given me a few ideas of where to search.
It's a MayDay on the Hobnobs but we are Bourbon capable!!! Tea is a given in times of high stress. (In times when stress isn't high actually).Shame about the canopy gap. With patience you should be able to fill it. Protect the clear part with masking tape before you start.
The best thing for stress and frustration is a cup of tea, a few chocolate Hobnobs and a liberal sprinkling of bad language - works every time
YES Jim spot on mate that it does for me to till one of you guys on this wonderfull foruom sorts me outShame about the canopy gap. With patience you should be able to fill it. Protect the clear part with masking tape before you start.

My dogs have been my stress relief! I just walk away from whatever is getting to me and spend time with them - now the puppy. Down side with the pup is she's teething and the digits get it!! Which doesn't help with precision later!!!!
