VFA-103guy Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Absolultely stunning job! My only critique would be the anti-glare panel is a bit too short, and should extend and curve a little fwd of the radome hinge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honza K. Posted May 29, 2010 Author Share Posted May 29, 2010 Thank you! You are maybe right... wash... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Laud Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Even though I'm a fan of the plain grey Navy birds, I enjoyed this thread a lot. Your precision and patience you put into your builds is absolutely amazing. Also looking forward to your Hornet beeing finished. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MarkW Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Nice. Why did you put tape insets on part of the drag brace? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honza K. Posted June 20, 2010 Author Share Posted June 20, 2010 Nice. Why did you put tape insets on part of the drag brace? Thanks. Because there were... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Walker Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Wow, how simple is that?!?!? Tape to cover up ejector pin marks. Genius!!! Since I'm not a genius, I obviously hadn't thought of that before now....... Looking really nice Honza! M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkW Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Aha. The wash takes off the edge, and primer takes care of the texture difference? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honza K. Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 Aha. The wash takes off the edge, and primer takes care of the texture difference? The tape is there for cover up ejector pin marks. Wash is only in the corners for more plasticity of landing gear. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkW Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Sorry I wasn't more clear. What I meant is the tape texture is fairly rough compared to the plastic. How do you get an even, consistent finish between the smoother surrounding plastic and the rougher tape? Also, the tape isn't a perfect fit--the top triangle is probably the best example. How do you obscure the edge of the tape in the inset? I assumed it was by using a wash. Is the tape glued down somehow? It looks shiny. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honza K. Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 (edited) Tamiya tape is painted with Tamiya extra thin cement. And I don´t thing, than can be some problems with glued down tape in future. And texture of tape is after tamiya extra thin painting and surfacer OK.... ( it´s not big difference behind tape and plastic) If you want, you can putty this holes, but for me is this quick and easier.... and looks good. Edited June 21, 2010 by Honza K.
