0:00 In the first part of the build we look at the build ahead and look at the changes we will make with the Eduard 48019 Space upgrade set. 7:34 We start work on the cockpit and remove all the surface detail ready for the 3D printed decals. 11:36 Next it over to the spray booth to give everything a coat of Tamiya XF-85 Rubber black. 15:22 With the black work all dry we dry brush the cockpit with 502s ABT170 Light Grey and then over the flat areas with Dark Iron 214 bufferbles to give a warn look. 22:32 Next we add the Eduard Space set 48019 3D printed decals to the cockpit.
0:00 Here we look at the cockpit and assemble the main gear bays and gear. 6:53 Next we work in the cabin and paint and weather with dry brushing and oil washes. 18:47 As that's drying we add the side bays with the gear and fix them in place 27:29 Next we install the cabin window and then mask it with the Eduard mask set and finally dry fit everything together ready for glueing in place.
0:00 We start by Gluing the overhead panel to the clear parts, we use Ammo Ultra Glue for is and work great and dry clear. 4:24 Next it's time to glue the two fuselage halves together. We use CA glue to tack glue in place and then Extra thin-glue to weld it all up. 16:05 WE have a few seams to take care of, so we use homemade Styrene filler for the job and allow 48 hours to dry. 19:51 With the filler drying we put together the engines and the the main wing and flap assembly.
0:00 To start, we assembled the rotors in the flight position and a second set in the folded configuration. The folded configuration was a bit of a head-scratcher, but we got there in the end. 7:23 Next it's time to sand the filled seam on the top and bottom. We talk and show how we tackle sanding flat surfaces. 16:12 Once we are happy we test the seam with a coat of paint to see what it looks like. 26:11 Lastly, we can re-scribe and re-rivet the details we lost with the sanding. 34:57 Last up for now we add the Photo etched vents.
