foxtwo Posted February 15, 2005 Author Share Posted February 15, 2005 email inbound stusbke...but that's not " critiques", just my way of thinking...i'm not the only one to be able here to give " critics" about models...there are a few guys here that are on the top of the modelling skills....... so, the model is ready, just waiting the canopy...then i'll start the paint ! i've got another problem, did i add all the weapon load ( very impressive one) or just some.......and what are the problems with the missiles fins, some are saying that the fins are too big ??? forget to say that i've to build the rear deck........i'll try to approach the skill of Zactoman for that;....brrrrrr..... here is the most dangerous part of the bird..... pat Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hawkhornet Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 foxtwo how the f*** do you manage to glue the wire to the plastic without having huge glue streaks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foxtwo Posted February 16, 2005 Author Share Posted February 16, 2005 Hi Hawk... first, i always managed to drill a hole....so the wire can hang on easier....second, i put some drops of glue on a cardboard, using a fine wire i drop the end of my wire into the glue.....it has enough glue on it to be dropped on your piece..... pat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
