Centuri Draconian Marauder #5336 Build, Part 4, Wings



The wings were cut free from the thick card stock with a sharp knife.

The root edges of the wings weren't cut straight.
A few passes with 220 on a block closed up the gaps.

This is the rudder piece.
Under a light you can see the raised areas along the outside cuts.

On the finished model you can see both sides of the wings and rudder. The raised edges will be removed here, too.






Sanding alone will just give you a fuzzy edge.
Rolling on some medium CA hardens up the surface for easier, fuzz-free sanding.

The front landing gear support piece also got cleaned up.
Here I'm sanding down the raised edge with 220 grit.
If any fuzz shows, reapply some CA and sand again with 400 grit.
