Well its finally done ! Its been a long time coming due to a fair bit of inactivity but i'm calling this finished. I took a few photos with the canopy placed in the closed position first ,before fixing it in the open position .The kit supplied ladder has been used along with a protective cover made from wine foil . At first I thought this ladder was a bit of artistic licence from Monogram but i managed to find pictures of the real thing being used , also showing the removeable red protective strip on the leading edge of the fuselage .The P.E. grilles were a task , attaching them without getting shiny glue marks on the dead matt paint or clogging up some of the tiny holes was a task . I finished up attaching them with a combination of matt black paint and johnsons Klear , the giving the whole airframe a further dusting with matt varnish. Heres some pics , i'll be putting a load more on a Completed thread.
