Hi all,
I'm just starting out in trying my hand at scale and can't find how-to detailing technique articles. Lots of the math of scaling and such, but little on technique.
So for instance I have a Peter Alway paint pattern scale drawing of the Black Brant 2 from 2003 and on it he specifies a number of places that there are screws and their number. How does one apply them? Simply dot them on with a marker or paint? I'm starting with the Estes BB2 kit and not sure of the scale it's made to..awaiting electronic calipers to try and determine that. Surely at 1:13 or so scale one wouldn't even see them??
Any advice welcome. I'm starting out with the Estes kit and an ASP WAC Corporal.
Thanks MS in advance.
Cheers
