Vertical fin
The aircraft has a fairing from the canopy aft to the vertical stabilizer which is very distinctive of aircraft in those days ( usually an after thought when they realized that the skinny fuselages did not have internal room to house wires, ducts and equipment ).
Lets add the frames to the rear. and now the fin itself dry fit over the frame Isaac

Upper spine
Here are the parts
also, I will build this model with the canopy open. The design is similar to what the Republic F-84F looks like. The canopy has a master lever in the back that swings up and pulls the canopy with it. here are some pics I found on the internet with details from a plastic model. so I cut the lever arm from the first section. Details will need to be added later on. Isaac

little note Isaac....
the fairing from the aft of the canopy(where you cut the piece for the opening canopy) till the beginning of the fin should be more round.....especially the parts painted in grey. YOAV |

I think we need small frames there to keep the shape correct Isaac

you can shape the parts with gently a little bit wet the inner side with damp cloth....and after that the parts is very strong and yet with the desired form. here some examples. good luck YOAV Last edited by YOAVHOZMI; 04-12-2017 at 10:20 AM. |
