Andrew thanks! Colin thank you very much been struggling with the details on this interior flattered that you think so much of it ,I would love to do 1/32 but just do'nt have the room. How was the kit all in all? Steve thanks,yes pre cut mask but alas epic fail on the vac canopy:smile10:
I hit a huge snag with the replacemnet Canopy,I just could'nt get the fit correct at the major seam between the nose section and the main no matter what I tried !! Well wound up deforming it worse than the kit supplied one! To add injury to insult I had already masked it! I wet sanded and buffed out 85% of the blemish on the kit supplied canopy sections then transfered the masks. The fit still is'nt great but considering the 188 almost took flight into the nearest wall at one point in the struggle I'll live with it. I'm close to being ready to paint and still have'nt decided on a scheme,leaning toward a black bottom and squiggle topside of some sort just not finding many good pics on line and my books are hopeless on the 188.Anyway here is the progress so far...........
