Started this during Easter and it was suggested that I post it here having already posted on another site.
First up - scale up a wing in the virtual world and 3D print some aerofoil.
Then enlist the help of an expert to make it come together.
Wing came out OK
A little old school plasticard carving for the fuselage and some builder's bog...
Some judicious placement of plasticard strips and a 3D printed tail etc.

.which involved tinfoil & aftermarket buckles
added some seats covering from painted bandage and dolled up the interior a little.
The wings and tails are sanded and ready to be attached, windows are in, more work on the interior done. For contrasting panels I sometimes use tiny cut out shapes from sample colour chips.. saves having to open a tin of paint - I'm all into time and efficiency... ( actually I just couldn't be arsed reading the number off the top of the tin sometimes
)
If you look caefully yo can see the instrument panel I made from bits of card
and after some more interior painting gets done I'll start laminating the panels.
and then it's off to the spraybooth after some serious panelling and sanding
followed by some cheeky canopy work courtesy of some Easter egg packaging.
It'll look better once the PVA dries clear.
