This looks like a great subject - masking canopies, I feel the pain...

Fuselage and wings in. A bit of a struggle getting it all square but I think I managed it. There isn't much in the way of gap in any of the joins but I've brushed some primer on the joints so I can see where I need to be filling and then sanding.
Sanding ???? Now that is a bit of a dilemma. All of the panel lines are raised on this kit rather than engraved. So sanding across the joints is going to lose some detail. How am I going to deal with that ?????

Mask as much of the detail as you can to protect it.Comment

Well I think I've had a bit of a result with this........... After putting some primer on the joints and some light sanding I really don't think I need to be resorting to much in the way of filler. I reckon a combination of the joins being a good fit. a lot of work during the "dryfit" and a pretty good attempt with the cement has paid off.
Next step. Mask up the cockpit areas and a light coat of primer all over.
