During my recovery I was visited by a wandering Walrus thread. The guys have done them very nicely in card stock, but I was inclined to put my spin in. So it began by sizing the paper model to 1/200" scale. Then made 4 copies on my infamous label sticker stock and a few bits of styrene and wood. The idea is to wrap the wood and styrene with the stickers and got the elves to work.
So begins a day's work, I mean a, a day's rest . . . proof of concept:
Lurking on the front deck of the Glorious
I like it! Now for the rest! Edges of wooden fuselages are colored with markers
Fuselage bits cut from stickers and wrapped to the bass wood cores
The remaining stickers will be cut and stacked in piles for speeding up the production
Three sets of stab stickers folded and stuck to .02 styrene sheet
Bits cut, folded, stuck and assembled en mass, top wings covered and dihedraled in the background
End results, not bad for an afternoon!
Off on patrol
