I'll do my best to document my build of the Snowbirds kit. So far, I've printed all the sheets and clearcoated them. I've started laminating internal formers to double thickness heavy card.
I also assembled a spare copy of the nose cone (inside out) and filled it with 5 minute epoxy to start forming the positive mould for eventual vacuum forming a clear nose cone. I have a lot of work to do on it to get it to final shape; but the initial result with the epoxy is promising.
I'll have to post an image of the headlight plate(s) I drew up for the model, assuming creating a clear nose cone works out.
I'll post pics soon-ish.
