Lock n' Load Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Awesome Manuel! I really like this build! Hey, i have a few questions for you i hope you can answer them What is the black rubber you used as hydraulic lines? And i noticed that you are from Lima,how do you get your aftermarket products? I ask this since i'm from mexico and well.. you know, they are not alot of hobby shops here. Good luck with your F-14! -Erick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CW4 Erick Swanberg Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Looking really good there. Watch out when you start to put the front Fuselage to the rear there will be a big gap on top when you try to line it up straight. If you look back at mine you will see what I am talking about. I used sheet and super glue to fill the gap and sanded it smooth. That kept the whole thing straight. Also if you thin the edges of the square insert that goes on the bottom of the rear fuselage between the intakes you wont have to fill to much. HTH Erick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Manuel J. Armas S. Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 Hi everyone: A litle Step, detailing the vulvan canon, I made this detail with PE from eduard and Steel tube, glue it with cynoacrilate. After we will see the result with the steel painting. Now I need to wash the resin parts, to clean up, the Cockpit is very important so I need patience. Soon more Greetings...

If so, could you tell me which Eduard set includes this piece please? TIA :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Manuel J. Armas S. Posted November 12, 2007 Author Share Posted November 12, 2007 Hi everyone: here a little step from the weekend. Attaching the Photo etch parts with the resin parts, I enjoy this work. I glue this parts with epoxic glue, slow action but great finished. Here some Pics. I want to paint the cockpit, but I have to wait... Soon more updates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpagueur Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 (edited) Hi Manuel, great work!! I pay you my compliments. Looking forward to see more progress on your Bounty Hunter. Cheers, Luca p.s. is it possible to know if the NACES seats included in the Teknics cockpit set are exactly the same Cutting Edge ones? (CEC32118, belts apart) Some time ago an ARC member told the CE (Teknics?) are the best SJU-17 available out there in 1/32 scale and I agree with him, my only doubt is if CE and TK are the same mouldings (I suppose yes, as they both belong to Meteor Prod). TIA. Edited November 13, 2007 by Alpagueur Quote Link to post Share on other sites
