Fuselage skins formers

Ahoy Paper wrights

Here is the first update build report on the old Scooter.Thus far a very simple build no fit issues were incountered but do tell, first I formed and constructed the nose cone again with those pesky petals, The nose cone assembly has been complete waiting for the glue to burnish same. all of the formers have been cut out and sanded all of the skins have been prepared for assembly next up date will be the assembly of the entire fuselage. Took note on the instructions there are no assembly instructions for canopy I am on my own in constructing the fuselage will give way to its assembly. Went to hobby lobby a bought some color marker pins I will be needing them in telling if there is any marker fluid in the markers pencils. Its been a long while since I used them Okay Fellas below are the pictures as follows

Fuselage skins and assembly

Ahoy
Here is the last build update for the day been on this almost all day, Lollllllllllllll Starting to look like a A4 as for the assembly ran into a fit issue with former C former was a tad oversize I had to sans down the outside edges of the former to comply with the skins Skin No.4 has long bend to give the A4 oval in shape I cut off 1/32 of an inch off to fit fiormer C. No big deal just trim and assemble. dopnt want to rush this getting the feel back into paper. Between plastic and wood there was not much of an adjustment between materials.

As per photos The fuselage formers and segments are joined and let dry over night then give it a good burnishing and proceed with the construction. The remainder of the fuselage segments and former went together beautifully no hair pulling.

While the colors are off, I believe the Marines did have a green/brown aggressor A-4.

Fuselage assembly

Ahoy modelwrights

Here is another update build report on this kit, thus far I had a little fit issue with the turtle back on the fuselage topside. The skins were oversized thank god for this all you have to do is trim to fit. I got this kit from our Beloved Ron40 in telling how long he had this kit judging the printing of the kit it is ancient all had drawn hand drawn kits are a challenge specially for the green horn in this hobby. The fuselage at this stage is 99 percent done all is left is the after burner and cockpit details which leaves a lot to desire. spicing up it will need in all its a A4 scooter. Next will be the finishing up the fuselage and the wings will be next looks to be a fast build no matter how slow I work I have 32 hours invested in this already a lot of time for an old fart in the wind. Here are the update pictures PS thank you everyone for your views and comments I be here on the forum for a while.
