 The
complete front section is shown in the picture. I applied putty and
smoothed a few times, and I applied Mr. Surfacer by a brush each time for
checking.
All I have to do is to apply carbon fiber decal now. |
 At that
time, I wanted to see how the model would be built, so I put some parts
together. The door hinges are already made, but not fixed yet.
The bulkhead under the windshield needs to be added because there is a huge gap. |
 As you can
see, the door sills are filled by covering with plastic sheet. I
used putty to make curved surfaces.
|
 The gray
spots on the diffuser are Tamiya putty thinned with Mr. Thinner. Mr.
Surfacer is too thin, and Tamiya putty is too thick to eliminate those
ejector marks, so but using thinner for Tamiya putty, I had a control of
consistency. I employ this method to erace the marks quite
often. |
 Prepainted
engine and gear box assembly is shown.
I haven't done anything yet, but took a picture for future comparison. |
