Thanks Christian! It was not the rotating it was to get them stick to the tooth picks

well the front leg - not sure ... but look yourself

... not sure if I'm satisfied ... have to sleep on it

 

[moon puppy]

Well I would be satisfied. Really great work Martin

Thank you both - still not sure - I'll do the main gears and then decide

I haven't done that much on it lately, so not much to show

ah ... the ejector seats have arrived, 2 nice ACES II type A - so the cockpit pieces are complete now.

a small update on the main legs

This time I first painted the wire and then attached it - this looks far better i say

 

[mlp]

OK the main legs - almost done

 

[moon puppy]

Amazing Martin, sorry you got two updates pass me without comment. You have a lot of plumbing on the gear, which looks great but, are you using references or creative license. Not questioning you but just curious.

 

[phantom II]

Hi Martin,
either way, very nice work

Cheers, Christian B)

:laugh: :laugh: ooohhhhh wellllllll ... those bath tubes, which would be the right expression for whats delivered with the kit, are about 2.5 cm wide in 72, so I will do something but not all this crazy wiring in there or I would end glueing in some hair
