1⁄35109 Down!

Now shaking a little, I went on to the candle work. As I stated earlier I left the prop unpainted to this point. We'll get to that later but first to the under fuselage. I heated the fuselage and crushed the chin intake and part of the engine compartment (now it's ruined beyond repair). So, on to the prop, now that the fuselage crush had determined the impact angle, I repeatedly heated and bent the blades to match the potential damage, again consulting reference photos and using some imagination. Once I got what I thought was a "good prop" I applied paint and damage shading.

I like the dio, I've been thinking of doing one of maybe the Apaches that went down in Iraq, but I'm afraid i may overdue the damage, and I haven't seen any pictures of their crash sites
