Boeing KC-135 Oddball/FG Beta test
Hi my friends!
Time to show the another Oddball test. Aaron send me a two military versions of 707 family the long-life Boeing KC-135 and E-3 AWACS, both models is in 1/100 scale. The first test is Boeing KC-135. I start the build for the central fuselage...   After I glue the segments and open a wing support hole...  I build the central section of internal support...  With careful I glue in the palce the Support, the gluing is made in steps, to correct aligment...    I reserve to dry and made the external segments of wing support.   I gluing the segments and made with careful because the right diedro...  After I cut skins of wings...  And glue in the support, the secret to obtain a clean gluing is use a foam polivinil glue, for large collage areas...   The results at the moment...   Why I started for this area? I explain: The wing/fuselage aligment in this model is very important, because this I not build the other fuse segments, for have area to fix any issue (if happened), is a good tip for any Fiddlers Green or Oddball model. After I glue the third fuse segment in rear to made a wing root, for later made the rest of fuse. Best regards!

If this looks half as good as the KC-10, it's going to be an awesome model. Looking forward to this and the E-3.

Thank's people!
Time to update. I gluing with careful the wing roots. I start from bottom section the gluing is step by step. Is a slow work but made correct is a great difference in visual aspects.  The wing roots cut...  Start of gluing, I made section by section, consume many time but I believe is correct.  Start of gluing of superior face of root...     The work in wings main construction is done, time to make the fuselage. Aaron suggest made a "ring" of root and fit in the wing but I prefer the method described above, for me is more easiest to fit. Next steps fuse segments...
