Cubs2jets Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) Rotorman, Your scratchbuilding skills are beyond belief! Question...I thought the AN/AQS-235 AMNS was only carried on the port (left) side of the airframe as shown in the two pictures on the previous page?

Rotorman Posted August 7, 2017 Author Share Posted August 7, 2017 C2j, Not really sure whats side it is carried on in real life, you might be right. I have something planned on the other side so I switched sides. Oliver Quote Link to post Share on other sites

C2j Hey- It is only carried on the port side in real life. Just because the winch sits that way in the cabin and can't be turned around to face the other way.

hawkwrench Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Brilliant work Oliver! How come my styrene scratchbuilding looks like crap and yours always looks simply amazing? It took me 4 1/2 hours and 3 tries to finally get my FOD/Fuel Station to look halfway decent. (See my thread to see the station built), and it looks kindergartenish compared to yours!!!

Rotorman Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 Tim. I looked at your fuel station and it's looking fine to me. I would predrill the holes for the handles before u glue the Walls. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hawkwrench Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Copy that. I didn't think about pre-drilling the holes. I was so caught up in just wanting it to turn out good. I don't see how you turn out all your styrene projects and them looking so perfect! How do you get your pieces so squared up and even? Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
salvador001 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Wow that is just perfection. Amazing work Oliver! Rod. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
