Model Minutes Leduc 22 Build, Part 9, Cockpit Seat


This is an optional part, I figured it would add some detail under the clear canopy.
The fold embossing is done first before cutting out the part.


After cutting it out out, it's a strange looking piece.

The glue tabs are long and thin. I had to use long tweezers to do the folds. They can't be folded down the line using your fingers alone.


The folds were sharpened with my Sharpie burnisher.


Here's how it looks dry folded, no glue yet.



The angled cuts on the rear black side were too long and wouldn't allow the piece to close against the front. Here I'm cutting off the corner of the glue tab. A glue stick was used to adhere the part.
