Pinkie Pie

I guess I'm not 😄 

Let's start, the crew greets y'all on board 

Colours added 

Did some mapping today 

Just to sand smooth the fuselage... 

...and to find out the mapping is in the intructions 😠 

Crew, ready for take-off! 

Let's start the fuselage 

Some pressure was required to force the parts into submission 

The fit is 'not perfect' in some places 🙁 

Current state 

So the time came to handle the windshield 

And I managed to break it at the very beginning 🙁 

That the end of part I 

Hope not many people will look at the right front corner :/ 

Squeezing it all to fit each other changed the flight deck geometry significantly 😮 

So, approach 2 to the windshield looks like this. 

I do hope I'm getting there 🙂 

As the fit wasn't best, I decided to add a layer of such a cheap jewellery resin. 

This is how the Swedish fluid plastic putty works in my case 🙁 

What do I currently do? I sand, prime and repeat 😄 

After multiple iterations of riveting and sanding and re-riveting I decided to take a different approach 

Started the wing works 

 

Bit of dry-fitting fun for today 🙂 

Looking for the right shade of pink - famous pink primer on top (benchmark) and my latest mix on the bottom. 

After some trials I decided to strengthen the wings using the old and crooked airbrush needle
