Many thanks for your kind words friends!
A milestone I dare to say - you can already see the size of the "Bloody Paralyser" since I`ve started to glue the fuselage parts together. More to come soon.


Best regards

The fuselage is glued and covered with Mr. Surfacer 1000. Some minor touch ups still required. I thought it`s going to be a tougher job.

Great progress! Looks like one piece.
What glue do you use, CA or Epoxy?

Cheers,
Frank

Looks really good.  Any further information on when we can pre-order this beast?

So after a few other projects I have returned to building the Bloody Paralyser.
I`ve assembled the tail section and attached the wings.
I have also tried the stencils by Jarek Rydzyński to make the PC10 a little bit more interersting.
I must admit - it`s huuuuuge, yep.

I think I`m done with the most tricky part of the build - the undercarriage and the engine nacelles. Frankly speaking I thought it would be really hard to keep the geometry right but I think it turned out quite acceptable.
In the meantime I`ve applied some weathering too.








Best regards

I've seen this kit up close and personal at Telford last year, so I know what a beast it is!  A model this large is awkward to work with, at best.  You've done a remarkable job thus far, Filip.  Truly stunning.
Cheers,
Bud
