Blunty finally finished
Posted: Thu Feb 04, 2021 4:28 pm
Been working on and off on correcting the miniwings JP and mods to make it a Strikemaster (the kit is a JP)
couple of pics to show the extent of the mods needed and the more or less finished item (yes I can see the problem with the roundel) still not convinced the nose is exactly right but it's certainly better than the kit shape.
Canopy needs attention, the moulded frame line windscreen centre needs to be polished out - it's an internal strut.

- Apart from the nose, the intakes are short, the ailerons incorrect - on the topside, and the two dorsal intakes too small. tail plane needs a lot of fettling too.. Note the aerodynamic strakes at the wing / fuselage leading edge
