This is looking cool so far, you certainly have more patience with pe parts than I do.

Steve, Vaughan, Ian, Scott, Joe thank you all for the kind remarks!

Tackled the Canopy ,after anealing the metal it was a lot easier to bend into place. I did manage to get debonder on the plastic and it fogged it bad so I had to wet sand it out.



Then buff it out



I forgot the seat belts !



Canopy secured



Masked



Finished the pe on the gun ports and had to fill some seams,now ready for some paint!

That's coming along very nicely indeed Trey. Good save on the canopy!

Super work Trey. Be interested to see how that light blue affects the final finish.

Wow, this is coming on really quickly. Fabulous details being applied to this and the aftermarket stuff really will make this build special.

Great stuff

Thanks Joe ,the light blue is actually part of the paint scheme on the full scale one.

Paul thanks appreciate that.

I got the basic blue on and the preshade seems to be pretty effective,usually I have a hard time with this and dark colors.



Then a coat of gloss in prep for a decal session
