A small advance on the Ayjay 4 SUB - detailing the fronts 2

More details added to the fronts of the Ayjay 4 SUB. Lamp irons and windscreen wipers added, horns removed from the dummy motor coach but not yet from the motorised one.

 

I must change the wire gauges used for the jumper cables. The ones I used match the resin moulded-on ones but they are really too coarse - I seem to recall I discovered this when I did the 2 HAL previously. I think most would agree the effect is still better than moulded-on detail though.

EDIT: I decided I just had to fix the overscale jumper cables. The wire used originally for the centre cable is now the thickness used for the outer ones, while much thinner wire, from some multi-strand cable, was used for the centre one. I am now much happier with the effect.

Hi , Looking great!

We had to make the moulds with out under cuts , other wise they would not cast. Yes perhaps we will put this in our instructions , I totally agree adding wire to replace the cast ones improves the model . For ones we have built for customers we have used fues wire , bends to the shape you want ,
