Thanks for all the kind comments guys, keeps one focused OK, now the FUN starts. Please see the attachment. This is to let you know that i have a PLAN for this area. Just because the canopy wont let you see much - and the fact that she will spend most of her life suspended from a ceiling doesn't mean you shouldn't get to see what the cockpit is like..... you will see what i mean.... should be fun Also attached a reminder of what the seats and other parts look like - it's been a while

PS. This mix doesn't work with Glossy paper unless you remove the coating - also, you can use old newspaper if you need alot of the mix. The whole principal is very similar to papier mache ! but refined. PPS. One other idea i tried.... if the part you need has a SOLID colour, you can mix POWDER PAINTS in with the product, this way, after sanding, you get a great UNDERCOAT that wont fade whilst sanding.

Caution with the laytex. I think I read some people are allergic to laytex to the point of going into system shock. The stuff is everywhere. In paint, the glues, even forms of it in food products as 'binders'. Most food industry gloves are vinyl. Some are stamp-cut most are stretch fit. Could be a food or medication reaction. Try a pair of waterproof gloves till your hands sweat and test the PH. That could well be the root of the evil. Last time I got talked into seeing a doctor I had a real nasty cold. After a week of new alarming symptoms I found all were from the meds. Chicken soup and scotch-on-rocks would have been much better with no deductable. My thoughts go out to you and hopes of a speedy recovery.

Sure thing SWF - give her my regards and sympathy, just hope she gets it sorted out, it can become quite debilitating at it's worse.

hi pete, this looks like a hell of a big bird
thats a cracking idea with the cockpit lights, go for it! problem with the hands i see. may be a little help, you were mentioning about the filler mix that you do. this is the handling of paper again. theres one filler i always use 'it may be a tip to other modelers also' if you can get it in other countrys that is. it is 'coving adesive' you know, for putting up that lightweight ceiling corner coving stuff. sticks to paper like **** and sands up a treat! got mine at the local B&Q. just a thought. keep up the good work mate. i'll keep looking in on ya |

As an aside, not being in to the classified ad dating scene, until a friend pointed it out to me I was not aware that SWF abbreviation of my screen name, which is my initials rearranged, was shorthand for single white female Oh well, I'm secure in my manhood, right, Kathy? Later, Forrest who indeed was born and spent his early years around southwestern forests, there are a few, it ain't all stone and sagebrush.
