Hello guys. Havent updated in a while but its moving forwards. I stacked the rest of the layers and glued everything together, made some holes and then coated the whole thing with wood filler. I know it deviates from paper modeling alot but hey...
After sanding it looks quite nice altough the little damages or surface scratches would be authentic as the real gun was kinda poorly manufactured, at least the frame.
Magazine fits nicely. Im contemplating to shorten the mag a bit but we will see about that.
Now i need to make the trigger assembly.
The trigger and bar are one piece, the safety will be pinched in the trigger part of the bar. Behind the mag well is going to be a little craddle, with dissconector and its spring and the sear. On the other side im not sure is it just me but the whole frame looks much thicker than it looks on the real pictures.

It's been a long time since I posted here becouse work gets in a way a lot haha
Anyway i was almost done with the pistol when i decided to stop becouse the final finish was terrible and i lost all will for it. Here it is l, everything functions except the stryker mechanism but it wasn't finished.

Hey Dominikan, good to hear from you. Yeah, the finish is not so good but your work making the parts was excellent. So you put that one aside and start something else. Later, come back to the GSh 18 and do it over. No biggie. Next time it'll be great! And you don't have to be building to hang out here and comment on things. Build when you can. Real life always comes first.

Thanks Elliott. I know, I always look at models that went wrong as a learning process and move on.
