FABRICATION...

 

I cut ot 2 pieces of sheet plastic to fill in the Cut-Out Areas. I glued them to the Body, but not the Underbody...yet. I cut out a Door Frame and fit it in place, no glue on this piece yet.

Ira, I very much admire your work and have for a long time. Your creativity is endless. I wonder, do you plan these builds or do you just fly by the seat of your pants and see where it goes ?

 

Thanks for the kind words Ray!

 

I usually have a simple plan , idea or sketch and go from there... B)

MAKIN' ROOM FOR THE BiG ONES!!!

 

I'm cutting away more body and undrbody to make room foor the Engines.


I cut about 3/16th of an inch off the both edges of the Underbody including the 2 Fins...

I cut out 2 New Larger Under Fins from sheet plastic...

 

DSCN0549P_zpsdec80b54.jpg


Here are the New Under Fins glued in place!

Next I cut out more of the underbody to make room for the Engines.


DSCN0583P_zpsd0ad303f.jpg


I cut a little too much from the body so I put in a 1/4 inch patch.


DSCN0560P_zps10f7ed40.jpg


That should be enough room... B)
