Alot of ya may have thought of this already, but an inexpensive tube of spackling works great for filling in those small holes and gaps... plus if you have - say a missing landing gear door - you can over-fill in the area then just sand it down to where it needs to be; then just seal it with model glue or finger nail polish to seal the pores, then paint. I used this method on a P-61 Black widow that was missing the forward landing gear doors and the result looks great! Plus if you grind down too far, just add abit more paiste, let dry, then do it again |
