I'm covered with fine white dust after working on my S-61 Seaking helicopter fuselage. Due to my extensive use of sandpaper, it also is covered with this white powder: Look here[^] and here.[^].

In the background you can also see the T-Rex I'm preparing and the five blade rotor head which I'm going to install after everything else has been set up.

This is not like building some good old plastic model. You have to add ebery little detail yourself. The masks for the windows, for example, are printed on normal paper and attached with normal scotch tape. They will be replaced with real masking tape, but first I will have to redesign and try them out until they fit perfectly. This set actually seems to fit quite well already.

Soon I will be done with cutting holes for all kinds of details and with sanding the surfaces. Then I will get my best oppotunity to mess everything up. Do you see that line that comes down from the hole for the main rotor and the swashplate and then runs horizontally toeards the cockpit?

That's the line where I will have to cut the fuselage apart. The front part will then be removable to allow installing the T-Rex inside the fuselage and to change the flight battery. Does anybody have an idea how I get a nice straight cut and not something uneven?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
