Thank you Spiros my friend (@fiveten).
I will let the LqS cure at least till tomorrow, and then give it a go with a knife. The Zvezda plastic is a bit strange, at first no sign of clue working, then it goes all soft in a large area, so care is needed. I have found that Tamiya Thin glue has trouble with the plastic, and usually just use the good old Revell Contacta for assembly.

John (@JohnB) thanks for tuning in. The LqS trick is also used by Louis (@lgardner) and Spiros (@fiveten), and they have both turned it into a neat everyday trick in their builds and I am simply copying. Another method as mentioned elsewhere on iModeler (I think it was Allan (@kalamazoo) that mentioned it) is to use some sort of solvent (Thin glue?) and a piece of sprue and a brush and then brushing the sprue, transferring the thus liquified sprue to the recieving object. That is another method I shall have to try one day.

Keep these tricks comin' guys!

Hello Erik, @airbum
I am very pleased to see you using LqS ! My first batch was too thin, so I added more plastic scraps and was very happy with it the second time around. I think that George @gblair
is right on the money, as it could soften the plastic if too much was used. Spiros @fiveten
also uses it for assembly on occasion. This stuff is best shaped with a file or razor blade to get it close, and then sanding is so much easier.

Your a 109 building machine ! Love it... 🙂

Glad my old Humbrol pot is in good use Erik @airbum. I haven’t used the LqS in this way - just mixing some scraps with drops of glue on a piece of cardboard - but I will certainly try this one!

Thanks to Louis (@lgardner) and Spiros (@fiveten) for sharing this trick with Erik. Keep on sharing those tricks!

Radiators corrected, LqS sanded

The radiators on the F had a “bypass” to create less airresistance

In a rather well made way the Friedrich had a channel to make air flow through the radiator housing when the radiator was closed, minimizing the resistance of the radiators. That meant that the radior had an airduct at the top front end, and an opening in the upper radiatorflap trailing edge

I filed the top of the front to depict that – though most will say it is absolutely not needed on a model, it is all the small details that makes the build worth it for me.

I had smeared on some LqS here and there, and today it was sanded with a coarse stick first, then a medium. There were some rather pronounced sinkmarks that needed to be dealt with

And as can be seen a second round is the order of the day. More LqS added, back to the box to set, then it may be some flaps/slats/ailerons next

Feel free to comment on the lunatism of the corrections – I never claimed to be normal 🙂

I love all these small details/corrections, my friend @airbum! In fact, it's those things that boost my motivation and make me eager to proceed with my models!
Seems that you 've gotten the LqS feel!
Nice progress!

Thank you Gents
Spiros (@fiveten), happy to inspire. The latest version of my LqS was a bit thick, and I have thinned it again. Better, but still not perfect.
John (@JohnB) I aim to please 🙂
I'm off to prime a few things - stay safe.

Nice Prime Time, my friend @airbum!
Prime Time is also the intro song of Alan Parsons Project "Ammonia Avenue" beloved LP (...not a relevant modeling info, apart from the fact that I frequently listen to this amazing album as I model 🙂 )
