glad I’m not the only one that makes mistakes like that
Oh I make plenty. I just haven't worked out an excuse for this one yet.
Thanks for stopping by gentlemen, another small update.
I'm slowly getting used to this oil weathering thing some people do. It's actually not too difficult, the only real downside is waiting a while for the oils to dry. So, slap some dots of oil on,
The brush them around a bit, and blend with some thinners, and you get a very subtle result. It's not easy to see in a photo, but look at the wing under the fuselage, that hasn't been oiled.
You can also see above my attempt at a bit of bungee cord around the landing gear struts - stop laughing at the back, I did say attempt. This detail is moulded, but bit soft. Unfortunately, some earphones paid the ultimate price to assist me here. Paint will be applied to make them a bit more bungee coloured and not Kevlar coloured - Kevlar in WW1...…...
And finally, as all that oil is drying, I've started fitting the
rigging eyes. I don't know how you spent your Sunday evening, but it WAS more interesting than fitting these little things. How many are there, I have no idea, it's just something I'll do, a few at a time, then I'll go and watch the grass grow, just for excitement.
One wing done, oh joy.
