Got a good amount done on the Kate over the past few weeks. The fuselage presented quite a few fitting issues. I did the best I could to hide the seem lines and repair the details that got sanded away.
As you can see below, I have completed majority of the paint for the fuselage. The last bit to paint will be the engine cowl. It will need to set for a few days before I can mask and paint that part.
The engine was detailed a decent amount, but I decided to add jewelry wire to enhance the realism.
Lastly, the torpedo provided with the kit did not have the wooden frame around the torpedo prop. I decided to make one out of balsa wood. I attempted to match it as closely as possible to the real thing.
Cheers!
