Sukhoi Su-12

 

I had to fill 5 sink marks in this small area  

Plenty to clean up in the interior  

This seam running up the back wall will need to be hidden. 

A little bit of styrene sheet hides the seam nicely. 

Another area needing to be hidden. 

A little bit of styrene sheet hides the seam nicely. 

Getting the cockpit together was a challenge because none of the control panels fit correctly and the decals disintegrated. 

 

In order to get the wings to fit and align I had to do a lot of trimming and adjusting of the tabs 

The mold of the vertical stabilizer has a hole in the rudder hinge. I also had to cut off the hinges from the rudder because they were in the wrong position, too thick and did not fit. 

Hole repaired and hinges made 

A styrene disk was added to each inner wheel hub so the wheels will stay on. 

 

These raised rivets will have to go. They aren't even straight.
