Thanks Yu, though modification seems like a strong word. It's just lots and lots of little corrections, though enough to make me really happy I can move on!
You can go and try it Chris, but you can't trust anything. Key thing is the formers being too small, in case you don't want to re-read the thread Works out easier than the Lenin car for sure! Quote:
I'm going to go with wood and do that tomorrow. Thanks for your concern

GREAT work Kuba, nice to see it finished (99%). The frustration level should be printed on the cover of these kits.

That 99 per cent photo is terrific, Kuba. You have definitely captured the essence of Dauntless in this model. It's a beauty!

Thanks for the words, and for paying attention after so many months!
I shouldn't have posted that photo, now you'll compliment essentially the same thing twice, or just stay silent for the real deal Final comments... I couldn't keep the antenna taut because the support post was too flimsy. Fairly straight still. The canopy shows some paint, where I painted the frames from the inside so it's not all white when you look in. Alright, here's the photoshoot. I took them in a larger size, so I'm posting them differently. Click for full size! (1600 x 1200) And here's a video! Turns out the prop makes a very realistic sound when you spin it. It didn't record as well as I hoped, but it still sounds cool. Luckily only my chin made it into the shot.

Nice work Kuba to get that model looking so good! I like the two part rear canopy, and interior work, really nice! Watch your six for one of Mikes J-planes..:D

Those birds are long gone Glen, race day was a couple of weeks back :p
Chris & Jim: Thanks! I really have no idea what did it though. I did notice it's harder to spin now that the canopy is in, maybe some turbulence off of it as you blow. Maybe it's just the solid wood () construction?
