discussion Yaks bought at cosford under a fiver build - eidai aero subaru

[yak face]

Well despite looking like quasimodo i managed to get the decals on tonight. Despite being very old they went on fine except for the two long stripes, one of these breaking into 3 , the other one into about 6. I pieced them together and the only part that needs a touch up is under the port tailplane. The front of the stripes didnt wrap round the curve of the engine cowling so ive left it till the decals dry then ill either cut them square or try a bit of decal solvent.next job is the windows , cheers tony

Well it sounds like you'll be giving up the Turkish wrestling then, you're not getting any younger you know. Stick to the gentile past time of models. And on that subject, this is looking really nice.

Well the windows went in with not too much trouble ,although they werent the clearest of parts.The decal stripe has been sorted/touched up and the undercarriage and other final bits are on so im calling it finished. I really enjoyed the build , theres something about having to be so clean with civil subjects that makes a nice change. Heres a few pics to finish the thread , ill put the rest on a completed thread, thanks for watching , cheers tonyView attachment 280629 View attachment 280630
