And the cockpit glued to the main body. Ignore the gaps, those were my own fault, as there were some hidden mountain folds there I only noticed after putting the body together...

Gary, if possible, could you send me the pdo of the model? It will help me with the girder thing on the back.

Way to go, Mister Pilsworth!

Did the generator dome and the dozer/sunroof of the Firefly today. Dome part was easy, the doze not so easy. I hate roling long small diameter tubes (part 21 especially). So I substituted that for some wire. The core of the axle is a wood dowel, so I had to drill some holes into it to make the rods fit. Not perfect, but it works. More images in my gallery, the link is in my signature.



(I'll let the cannon and it's hole in the doze slip, for now)(Ignore the pencil sharpener, it is a temporary counterweight)

Here's a little balancing act to show it is actually quite balanced when you put on all the greebles:



It tips forward, but falls back on the tracks good, even with the scoop in that position.

And here's the finished Firefly!





Thanks for this awesome vehicle, Gary! The pdo really helped with the girders. And now back to my hovercraft projects.

Thank you Gary for sharing these fantastic models from Gerry Andersons creative genius. Im not sure if you would be interested in a request,but im sure others would.What are the chances that you would be interested in reserching a model of the Zero X ?To my knowledge no one has ever done one.This would be a crown jewel in the fanderson paper modeling world.Please at least consider it.Thanks for reading.Best Regards. Ed
