David Walker Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) While I don't ever expect to scratch build a 1/32 anything, I will be able to use your putty technique on some smaller projects I've been thinking about. Amazing job so far! Edited April 3, 2008 by David Walker Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big Kev Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 This is certainly an amazing project! I myself harbour dreams (delusions?) of one day scratch building a J-29 Tunnan in 1/32 scale, so this entire thread will be gold for me! Kev Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Keep up the good work! I'll follow this one closely - once a man has seen a Viggen live, he got addicted to it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NazaruddinHashim Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 Thanks guys for all kind of words….I’ve never expect to have a kind of a great support from all of you. I’m grieved. I’ll appreciate it. I’d to dispute with nose part this week; it’s a big headache though. That was because of dissimilarity between Esci kit and picture that I’ve used as a reference. I’d realize that Esci kit has an out of shape at the nose. Have been failed several times and finally I get it done. Here some a progress photo…. Attach nose to the fuselage 1st stage sanding… Add this part….I don’t know what I should call that… Here the pictures for the 2nd and 3rd sanding process P/s-Always apply surfacer/primer every sanding stage done. I think it is regular operations right? And at last sufacer had dried, I used a wet sanding technique to smoothen the surface. That’s all about it….I’ll up load the final product of this process on the next post…. Stay tune…. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NazaruddinHashim Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 Here….. shape that I think close enough to a picture. It is just a basic shape, and I will give some touch up and refine it during the next progress…. Next post will be an air intake treatment….stay tune…. Thanks for viewing…Comment & critic are welcome….HAPPY MODELING Regards Naza Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NazaruddinHashim Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 Here an update time… Before that I would like to say A big thanks to “troll†because of a reference that’s he sent it to me. Especially an out line drawing it’s so helpful. In fact 90% of references are come from ARC walkround photo. Therefore, I’d to redo at some area that’s I’ve miss look. Thanks again bro. Here a pictures Sanding and adding process, narrow down the air intake, corrections on the belly…and little bit here and there… Before After I’d pointed also at an area but I’ll touch up later on…..
