Mini model 1/100 Series

[papermate]

Well, done mine over the weekend, another queue jumper.
Added what looks like cylinders to the engine dial, rigging and spinning props.
The fuel tank straps (Parts 36, 37) appear to be too short
so I have to cut them in halves and glued them on to the fuselage belly. Landing gear
struts shortened and given a tubular treatment. So was the tail wheel, a more 3D look.
Couldn't got the wing angle quite right unless I do the wing roots and wings separately.
Overall, a very good design for 1/100 scale builders.

Amazing job...Look like I need to make a internal former to make a right shape...but I think former in 1/100 will make a difficulty build, any suggestion?

Hello Nobi,

I suggest a former in the rounded nose and one in the more triangular body, behind the cockpit. No need for more, I think.

Nice littleone!

I build for years 1/100 models with formers. I believe a former in rear cockpit is good sugestion... And improve the build.

My attempt of build. The job on fuselage. I strong suggest a ideia of made a internal former in cockpit area, is a great help for made a correct cross section of fuselage. In mind the begginer not consulted references for you build. The rest the model is beautiful and easy to fit...
