Made a little progress today. I was able to cut out the horizontal spine today. As I mentioned in my previous entry I didn't order big enough depron sheets so I had to glue the outer wings and the nose cone. Not my favorite option but Ill most likely have to do that with the bigger model. I have to say that depron is a bit tougher to work with than I was expecting but so far I have only been using xacto knife and have yet to try sanding or other "finesse" techniques. Here's a shot of PAV-1 with the stabs propped up:
I also too a crack at cutting out a bulkhead. Below is a shot of a former at 1:13.8 which is very close to the 1:13.5 scale I want to build. I inserted a 64mm fan for a fit check:
Coming along nicely and hopefully I'll have most of PAV-1 done by the end of the week!
