Coming along nicely sir  :thumbsup:

She's up on her wheels! All six touch the desk. Color looks much better here too. On the RW Starfighters the nose gear is to the back of the wheel well on the single seaters and to the front of the wheel well on the two seaters. So I just went with the front position.







It's not going to be a contest winner but I'm having fun with it. I need to spray gloss and then decal it. As seen in the last pic, I'm picking out a pair of LGBs and left over Starfighter pylons as done by wardukw. Now if I can just keep from breaking off the tiny bits all will be well.

Very neat.
Front for the nose leg is right, no question.
Really waiting for the canopy masking to come off, now.
Cheers.

I hope to finish soon. Unless I drop it again!  :wacko:
Spray gloss, decals, spray flat, remove masking and attach weapons. Only problem now is my desk is covered with parts as I decided to make a Star Wars type droid for my ongoing Ian McQue project. Maybe a droid cargo moving vehicle too. We'll see what falls together.

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Thank you! However, at the rate I'm going, it might be next year!

Just some missiles I've put together to represent the JASDF ASM-2. I could get them in a Hasegawa set but I could make them just as easily and not buy a whole set of stuff.



The problem is I can not decide on what color. Sounds silly but I've seen pics in white, grey, light blue and blue with white wings. I think I'll go with grey that's different from the winders and a black nose. I need to stop futzing around, its a whiff!

That's something we all do, maybe even more so with Wiffery as we like to be seen to be "plausable"  ;) Well some of us anyway  :rolleyes:
