Yu-san,
you are a very adorable precious person...what a real pity, that the distance between Germany, USA and Japan is nearly insurmountable. Thanks again and again and again for KAMI and the common cranes, you sent to me long time ago via Kartonbau.de:D Arigatou Gozaimasu, Yu-san |

This is outstanding work for a first build (outstanding for the 10th build for that matter). Obviously, you have what it takes. I'm sure you will agree that having a quality-fitting kit helps as well.
Looking forward to the completion! Ken |

Stephan, it was totally a compliment. I point to all my little mistakes too, but I have much bigger ones to emphasize!
I make spinning propellors just so it spins as I fly around the room :p

Stephan, if that's the worst mistake you make, you are well on your way to being a Master.
If you rub the seam down with the back of a spoon, knife handle, et cetera it will be perfect.

Stephan-san, did you apply glue on the glueing tab? If so, next time please do not apply glue on the tab but inside of fuselage skin so that glue will not run off from the inside unless you apply tooooooo much glue

Excellent first build. The good Dr. Zarkov is well known of the exact fits of his models, but it still takes skill to make the model as well as you have. Keep posting I want to see the finished model.

@all: By the way....when gluing parts together, like fuselage sections with tabs...do you use white glue ( for wood etc.) or do you use "normal" translucent glue with ahem..how does it call...solvent ??? White glue cleaves quicker than translucent glue, but if using too much, the danger is very high, thet the card gets kinky because it is waterbased. A hint would be great. I tried out the white glue at the small glue contacts of the air intakes beside the front of the fuselage....it worked well and I needed only little glue. So long, Stephan |

Hi folks,
well, new parts have been completed, the fuselage is nearly completed, I also installed the elevators and itīs parts are ready and fit well. But I made mistakes on both sides at the platings of the elevators, ahem, I mean the metal sheets, which are rounded around the elevators.... I hope you understood, what I mean. I installed them a little to high, but it still lokks okay. Photos will follow tomorrow. The smile while looking at the Mig gets bigger from day to day.... Of course I flew a little round through the living room...:D Broooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrwwwwwwwwmmmmmmmmmmmm !!!!! Glue paper and rock on Stephan |

Very nice start. Way better than my first build. That was the 4' Titanic by Alan Rose back in 1981. I still have it. So if you were wondering how long they last this should give you a hint. And this was before Clear coating.

I think this a required step in the build process. No model is complete without it.
