It's almost ready for paint.
A little sanding on the cockpit left to do and for some reason I could not get the control yokes to stand up straight
Hmm. I must be getting better with the camera, only one very blurred and just a couple of them out of focus.
On the wings and body I laid down rivet lines, I couldn't get the pictures of them to focus properly though. It might be the lighting I'm using.

Wow, you're not hanging around with this build..... I like it alot. Pantherman
Thanks Panther. I'm enjoying the build more than I thought I would. It's taking a while but that is mainly due to work and the fact I keep running out of colors and have to wait for them to come in and I did run out of thinner, but I got more now.
It is ready for final assembly and weathering now, after that it'll be making the base and securing the model to it.
I'm going into the final assembly and weathering on it, then it's the flat clear coat and basing it.
This model is almost 30 years old and I never want to deal with decals that are that old again. They were slightly brittle and I had to use a needle to pull them off the paper and place them on the model.

That's a great build. I bet you're buddy will be thrilled with it. Pantherman
Thank you. I'm hoping he will be. I did keep him updated with photos and he said it was better than he could do.
