PLAMO: Re-WiredWolf - Plastic Modelling, Share & Learn

Got this old kit from a plane junkie

Nice build so far. need some minor puttying to fill up some gaps by the side.



Did some wiring and small plaplates


When its closed.. checking the fittings.


I would have cut out the area behind the back seat and detail up further if I haven't glue it.... damn... shouldn't have bought the Daco F-18 book...

Neh neh... what plane junkie? Heehee!

wah nice AMS there

wah.. u added stuff to the rear cockpit housing.. cool.. looking 4wd to more wip pics

Time for some update

Using white glue for the cockpit




Seam removed...
Can prime and paint liao..

Remember to paint the cockpit frame internal colour before you prime.

how strong is the white glue max? looks like it dun affect the base colour too?

viper, wat u mean huh? r u refering to painting of the inside canopy too?

Sometimes for airplane canopies, the inside colour of the frame differs from the outside.
But since we usually do not mask and paint from the inside, (we only paint from the outside), we first paint the inner colour.
This will be visible through the transparent plastic.
Then we paint over the canopy again, using the exterior colour.
Thus the canopy frames will have one colour on the 'inside' and another colour on the outside.

Yup will remember that.

I have been using white glue for all my plane canopy.. once dried.. strong enough for painting works.

painting inside canopy = mask liao, ab black then followed by the main canopy colour

so when u view the inside of the canopy it is black instead of grey
