Hello all,
I've restarted to build this "dated" Revell Kit:



a short recap about the work done until now ...

Interiors before assembling and seat belts applications ...



















Fuselage closed:







Steps of the wing dihedral modification :

I cut 4 plasticard pieces with a 7° angle to reinforce and make the wing more stable




I inserted a few pins to avoid plasticard flexions




I glued the outer wing



I cut pins to put correctly the inner wing



I glued inner wing:



in the end this is the result before putty and sanding:

Very nice!  Your additional features to sort out the wings will make this old kit look so much better.

Very nice! Excellent work on the interior but the step-by-step on your dihedral correction is very cool to see  :smiley:
