A very quick Natter

Leave a comment

Have made some progress today after very little modelling lately. The A bomb is now ready to have the fins added soonish and the Natter is marching along. All major parts are now added for the body and I’ve done work on the canopy and rockets. The front rocket piece is too wide for the body, should have test fitted this earlier so it’s back to Milliput to smooth this in,. The canopy needed a reasonable bit of fettling and the rear rockets are fun, essentially the nozzles need hollowing out as well as shortening to duplicate the photos in the Classic Publications Projekt Natter book on page 128. Below is the current state of play on the benchtop.

A touch of Paris

My son’s girlfriend recently went to Paris and bought us back a small gift, she didn’t quite realise how special it would be for a modeller…. an etched steel Eiffel tower.

On the more usual front I managed to finish closing up the Natter halves ready for filler.
