RQ-7B UAV IDF Academy 1/35 (Re-Deux Details)

RQ-7B UAV IDF Academy 1/35 (almost Finished)

Good job Gerry, :good:

Luiz

Thanks Luiz ... in looking over the photos I see lots of touch up needed ... I'm my own worst critic so the little deals under the horizontal stab ... I think are in the wrong place ... I must look on the net for better photo of that area and the seam line on the blue pipe must go ... Then spray with future & decals ... :pilot

Fellers I was right the destructions were very vague so from now on I'll check for walk around photos I think I can make this right ... hang tight ... very tiny pieces ... :skipper :pilot :woohoo:

Maybe a coat of Future inside that ring will make it nice and shiny. :popcorn

Thanks MP great ideal ... I think it looks better than silver paint ... the Future may do a glass look ... I just couldn't do silver paint ... :hmmm

I just noticed this build. I have LOADS of reference images (in case you're interested). It'll keep you busy for a while longer. Note that there are several models in service (different wings and small details).

Looks good Gerry,

That fix to the camera looks great!

Thanks Warren ... this thing is below my size even though it is a 1/35 ... kinda hard for my big fingers to work on ... at least spring is coming and the Hanger will warm up a bit ... (y) :woohoo:
