Thank You Terri, Lance, Frank and Rick for checking in! Yes, an AM cowling is not an option in darkest Africa, so we battle on! Next we add some surface primer round the edge of the plasticard strip, I use this as it has a finer grain than normal putty, and it gives a smoother surface when sanded, and also is about the same hardness as plastic, useful when attacking with sandpaper! Two photos to show this close up: Comments welcome!
Difficult to show these details in the poor light this evening, but hope it's understandable....
Regards,
Marc.
