Pinkie Pie
1December 2, 2022I guess I'm not 😄
2December 2, 2022Let's start, the crew greets y'all on board
3December 7, 2022Colours added
4December 18, 2022Did some mapping today
5December 18, 2022Just to sand smooth the fuselage...
6December 18, 2022...and to find out the mapping is in the intructions 😠
7December 18, 2022Crew, ready for take-off!
8January 1, 2023Let's start the fuselage
9January 1, 2023Some pressure was required to force the parts into submission
10January 1, 2023The fit is 'not perfect' in some places 🙁
11January 1, 2023Current state
12January 19, 2023So the time came to handle the windshield
13January 19, 2023And I managed to break it at the very beginning 🙁
14January 19, 2023That the end of part I
15January 19, 2023Hope not many people will look at the right front corner :/
16January 19, 2023Squeezing it all to fit each other changed the flight deck geometry significantly 😮
17January 24, 2023So, approach 2 to the windshield looks like this.
18February 18, 2023I do hope I'm getting there 🙂
19March 7, 2023As the fit wasn't best, I decided to add a layer of such a cheap jewellery resin.
20March 7, 2023This is how the Swedish fluid plastic putty works in my case 🙁
21March 7, 2023What do I currently do? I sand, prime and repeat 😄
22October 8, 2023After multiple iterations of riveting and sanding and re-riveting I decided to take a different approach
23October 29, 2023Started the wing works
24October 29, 2023
25October 29, 2023Bit of dry-fitting fun for today 🙂
26April 12, 2024Looking for the right shade of pink - famous pink primer on top (benchmark) and my latest mix on the bottom.
27June 14, 2024After some trials I decided to strengthen the wings using the old and crooked airbrush needle
28December 20, 2024Forcing the rivet decals to conform more, using Mr Cement SP
29December 20, 2024Ready for the last layer of pink
30December 20, 2024And 1h later
31December 20, 2024Unfortunately there are such pimples here and there, not sure I'll be able to get rid of them without ruining the pink colour
32December 20, 2024The effect I was moreless aiming for, the rivets are visible only in the closeups 👍
33September 6, 2025I think that's the best pink shading I'm able to deliver
34September 6, 2025Still need to paint the engines though
35September 6, 2025Engines done, took some shortcuts, but they seem to do their job
36September 6, 2025Started the nose job too
37September 6, 2025Ready for decals
38September 12, 2025In the middle 26decals definitely too small, Xtradecal RAF letters used instead
39September 12, 2025Decals on and sealed
40September 20, 2025
41September 14, 2025On its own wheels now
