Ok. My experience with resin models has been pretty good so far. One area I’m always afraid of is warming warped parts to reshape them. Most of the wings in this kit were warped to some degree.
I boiled water on the stovetop then let it cool for about 10 min before submerging the wings. I left them in for 15 minutes and then removed them and placed on a flat countertop. They hardened back really well and much more straight than before.
Next I painted them all separately.
Now I had to decide how to approach attachment of all these flying surfaces.
I decided to start with the bottom wing. It would be a nice base to align the others if I get it attached properly. I have no scale reference plans to go by so I just eyeballed it.
Here’s the wing struts glued in place.
Next came the second wing. I put brass pins in the fuselage attachment point
This wing needed to be trimmed a little at the wing root for proper fit.
Looks pretty straight
Third wing was a little problematic with the cabane attachment point.
I’ll wait until I finish rigging before adding the upper wing.
Thanks for looking in!
