Looking marvelous!

Well done on that nose job. What kind of CA glue did you use?

Thanks Dave 😀
The CA glue I used is a brand you'd probably never heard of..it's just some cheap stuff you can get in a pack of 6 for $2.50 nz 😉
Strangely ive used this CA before without any problems at all ...fact I've built 7 RC planes with this stuff and it's been used on dozens of models..it's like this packet was much more powerful than the other ones I've used ...bloody weird mate 🤔
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .

Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Looks good mate  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I've never seen superglue react with plastic like that.  Weird.

Build looks great.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

That nose looked a bit like what was left of an unfortunate Cutty Sark I tried to build as a kid ... before I knew that model glue ate the plastic.  The fore-deck was warped, so I kept adding glue to hold it down but this goop appeared that I kept removing  ...  :(

Chris..Fred ..Guy and Scotaidh mates..thank you thank you 😊 ☺️

Totally agreed Fred ...im the same..it reacted more like plastic glue than CA  :o

Scotaidh mate that very much sounds like my first model I built with plastic glue 😀 😄

Never been  a big fan of the Buccaneer but somehow this build is making me think about buying a kit... Very nice work on the build and the finish, love the weathering.  :thumbsup:

That's a great build, Phil. Strangely, while you know it isn't that bad, it still looks underpowered. Puzzling.. :)
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!

I know what you mean.

The build looks great!  :bow:  :cheers:  :thumbsup:

... but I can't stop thinking that the single engine looks somewhat anaemic.  :blink:  :unsure:
