Stefan buysse Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Hi, Cool stuff there, Haydn. I'm particularly looking forward to the C-97G. I didn't know there was a particular one looking for the SA-2 signals. B) Cheers, Stefan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helo 53 Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I built one of those Mach 2 RB-45C kits during 2011 . Here's a link to some WIP pic's I posted over at FSM ; http://cs.finescale.com/FSMCS/forums/p/129001/1414408.aspx#1414408 Some finished pic's here as well ; http://cs.finescale.com/FSMCS/forums/t/129001.aspx?PageIndex=1 The kit goes together okay , just watch out for the engine intakes and exhaust parts . their a little undersize when they fit against the engine pods and it would be easy to fit the intakes and exhaust onto the engine pods before attaching everything to the wing . If those links I posted don't work out , I can post some of the WIP's here if you like . John . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mig23 Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 Very nice build John ! Please feel free to post any pics you have. I have made a start on mine and wings and engine pods are now together waiting for the wing flaps to be cut out. I think you are dead right about completing the wings and engine pods before gluing to the fuselage. I am really tempted to open up the cockpit entrance too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mig23 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 A bit of progress on the wings. This is after rubbing down the first load of filler :) Cheers, Haydn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pete Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I've heard a lot of horror stories about these Mach 2 kits, but this one doesn't look that bad at all. Good looking build so far! The B-57 in the background looks good too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
