Major Bob Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I bought the 50th Anniversary kit hoping to mount the 2 aircraft in a simulated display pose. Built the Gnat, no problems. Building the Hawk and there is no 'wheels up' option as there are no covers for the wheel stations (other than those attached to the wheel struts, which don't fit the opening). To say I was miffed would be an understatement! Still considering how to get around this!! Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmcabecadas Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Maybe trimming the supplied doors and removing the structs can also be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Bob Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 Thanks for the suggestions guys.I ended up filling the wheel bays with putty (blue tac) and then covering with filler and sanding down. Gave a very good finish, but I had to give it a couple of layers of filler as my sanding skills are not very developed! Once painted you wouldn't notice :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
