Dynam DC3 Build

...starting to take shape

So far I haven't actually done much assembly of the DC-3, although I have done lots of spraying; I've decided to spray the wings, underside of the fuselage and horizontal stabiliser in aluminium metallic paint to mimic the general colour scheme of the commercial DC-3 airliners of the day.



Surprisingly, the spray-painting has gone quite well, even the tricky masking line of the fuselage. Now, with the painting pretty much done, I've just started the gluing process, with the first being the control horn bar of the elevator.


Next, I'll be gluing in the tail surfaces and then the biggie, gluing the wing halves together making sure that the incidence is correct and that they're set even...
