Jan 22, 2022

Jan 21, 2022
Connected the propeller and the fuselage with a spindle



Jan 16, 2022
Now that the propeller is assembled, I wonder if I should make it movable or simply glue it to the fuselage🤔


Jan 15, 2022
Propeller cap



Jan 13, 2022
Preparing the propellers

Radiator installed




Dec 15, 2021
Preparing the parts of the radiator

Dec 9, 2021
Before glueing the sheathing, I've sanded the attaching surface as inclined planes so that they are attached without exposing the edges. Maybe there are better ways handling this.



Dec 9, 2021
Main wing sheathing is done. I was a bit worry about glueing this part. The result looks OK.




Dec 1, 2021
Attached the recesses of wheels to the wing


Nov 29, 2021
Recesses for placing the wheels. Try putting them inside the rib see if they fit before glueing them to the wing sheating.



Nov 27, 2021
My work in progress moment for Halinski Spitfire Vb
Nov 25, 2021
Preparing the wing sheathing


Nov 22, 2021
The position of the notch of part VIIv seems wrong, have to cut it then glue them together.


Nov 15, 2021
To make the flaps movable, I attached them with blue stick instead of glue. I might glue them at the end if they don't hold up 😅


Nov 15, 2021

This time I glued each part separately before attaching them to the main body, it's a bit difficult to connect each section in the final step ...

Not making much progress theses days. Just finished the skeleton of the engine casing.

Made a mistake - interior part of the canopy was put outside 😅
Fortunately, I managed to fix it without any noticeable flaw.
Thank you @papiracky for letting me know, how amazing is to have someone building a similar model with you at the same time! 😉
