Flying scissors

The next journey begins. Looks like a modeller-friendly kit... 

 

 

As planned (and promised): pivot mechanism is installed 😉 

Canopy installed - fits perfectly. 

Fuselage ready for masking and priming. Masks for the windscreen and canopy are thoughtfully provided in the kit. Wing attached temporarily.

Almost there... 

In a hindsight - since the cheatlines are given as continuous decals it would be wise to fit and cut them before installing the engine pods... 

Front wheel needed to be installed on a piece of stiff wire - otherwise it would not withstand the weight of the model for sure...  

As planned, the angle of the wing can be adjusted freely.

Finished! Of course I broke the probe in the nose....
