Cool Hand Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Here we go guys. My first WIP on ARC. Sorry for the poor picture quality, still trying to figure out the digital camera. The pilot. Too bad the patches won't be seen once the canopy is attached. The instrument panel. Simple paint job, flat blacki nstruments, drybrushed with light ghost gray. I used clear green over silver for the radar scope. The gear doors are closed. The doors had to be heavily modified to fit, even then it's not that good. The rear panel for the front gear was a few milimeters too short for the opening, so I made one with sheet styrine. Lots of work ahead here. The right slat placed in the upward position. Again not the best fit. See pic below for large step on the underside of the leading edge. Consept shot. The centerline pylon with sidewinder rail and TACTS pod. 1/4 in. Aluminium rod anchored in miliput will support the kit. This will slide into brass tubing attached to the base. Finally, my cat, Thor. He watches me work, and generally gets in the way, the jerk. :D Cheers guys. ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ian Cooper Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I'm looking forward to seeing how you finish this off, Chris. I have the A4 Aggressor in my stash of unbuilt kits so I'm looking for inspiration! Good work so far. Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
