If you have ever tackled this kit, you know how frustrating it is. Too many ill-fitting vacu-form parts that require open seam filling. Too many balsa pieces that had to be filled before gluing onto the model.
I rarely give up on a build - this one qualified for a long rest.
I'm back in the saddle, so to speak. I'll be finishing up two of the kits.

To refresh your memory, here's the parts with vacu-form sheets and die-crushed balsa -
I have to wonder how many of these kits ended up unfinished in a dark corner of a teens closet.
Wish me luck!
As much as vac form and I don't get along, good luck, Chris.
ReplyDeleteI was reading this build earlier this winter. I had the same thing happen to me with the original Estes Space Shuttle in 1979. I still haven't got it finished but I am sort of working on it again. That vacuform stuff is pretty daunting.
