styrene sheet, tubing, and strip

... T shape, L shape, H shape, channel shape... and where to get this? A decade ago the best manufacturer was from Germany, outstanding range of profiles and I simply can not find it any more, even can not remember name.

And your work is excellent!!!

Most of my styrene comes from Evergreen here in the U.S. http://www.evergreenscalemodels.com/

Also I forgot Plastruct. They have some of the shapes that Evergreen did not in the past.

I should add that some of the round shapes in that cockpit photo are windings from an electric motor and lead-free solder of the proper diameter. I could be called the "junkyard modeler" I sometimes think! :-dal

Here is a link to Plastruct. http://www.plastruct.com/Home.html They do international direct orders. As for Evergreen, if you have a shopping list I could see if our local hobby shop has the items you need. Post shouldn't be too expensive, I would think.

First, Klir on the cockpit elements. Then, a wash with Citadel Brown Ink. Then Pébéo matt varnish...
So I've placed the canopy... You can see that fitting is ab-so-lu-te-ly perfect!!!  :-green  :-help
Vallejo putty programmed for this afternoon...
And I've also glued the wheels, that also needed putty (but here, Tamiya one)
