Slowly but surely my thunderhawk is coming together again. I have magnatised and “pinned”the wings. Due to the weight of the wings i used 10 cm long plastic rods to insert into the wings and thunderhawk.
Now i will need to fix the tail section, and replace the outside panels. I do believe i will be done then. Then the painting will start. Yeah!
I have started with the construction of a Space Marine thunderhawk. In these pictures you can see the work on the front prow. I will be adding comments and pictures as work progresses. I have stated work on the cockpit. I used bits of a landspeeder to use as seats. The marines will be added later. The entire model will be made from plastic card with exception of the engines.

I have closed up the front of the hull. I now need to paint the interior of the cockpit. I have started with the external plates to give extra detail to the machine. I am using old “extra armor” upgrades to create the side doors.

I have started detailing the outside. Using toothpicks for a grid. I have made the dark angels chapter symbol to stick to the front.
