Hi,

I am making model of an airplane from thermocol. Can I apply Bilux Polyester Putty on it for smoother finish. Here is a pic of a model.

Thanks

Thanks..

It is going to be display model only. However I am going to use Sunboard for wings. That means rebuilding wings all over again. Any idea on applying putty ?

I building one more model of Boeing 737 from thermacol. Will post pics soon..

Under carriage legs are too small. Looks like a aircraft dacshund. Your work is good - you
must be creating a lot of foam dust while sanding

@ shantanu
Great yar. Clap Real beautiful. Please paint and FLY this Beauty .
How you sand all the way to get such great shape. It must be a real dedicated work. I also tried to sand thermacol, but its real messy and Impatient job. all those thermacol particles spreading allover the home and sticking to you also.

Hi Utkarsh
you can use biofoam for tail or cut out flat sheets of styrofoam of required thickness, using wire cutter and sand a little....it will be easy to make tail then. Also, you can use coropast/sunpac for making tail portions.

Hello,
I am familiar with all these materials but still i want to go with thermocol. The thing that i am not getting is that if i am using a 10mm thick HD thermocol sheet then how to make the tapered part that is the part behind the wing to tail as seen in second pic of this thread. The each single wall of fuselage build from plan made up of HD sheet would have to be forcibly bent from almost near the trailing edge extending to tail to make that taper which would break the sheet. If it is done in two parts it won't be that accurate leading to a joint in fuselage that would be a weak one.
Kindly comment on this.  Bang Head Bang Head

I actually bent the sheet and stick it. But this will cause tail section fragile. You need to reinforce it.
