I'll have to have a think about making a YouTube video of the magnetic parts being fitted, as the cockpit, engine tailpipe, hydrofoil and the tail fin only have to be offered up close to their position on the model and they just jump into place on their own, with a nice "lock and load" sound...

I finally decided to do away with the engraved panel lines. They were too deep, wide and uneven. I have decided to get some Archer rivet decals for the panel detail. I need the o scale rivets though and I can't find any for sale here in the UK, so I'll have to have them shipped from the US.

I've finished the cockpit, other than the seatbelts

The new headrest. It attached to a peg and is only lightly glued on, so I can remove it and paint it separate from the model

We made another trip to Coniston today and I got some more useful reference photos of Bluebird. I need to make a new headrest. Also, nothing to do with models, but who would have thought a trees branches would still be the same over 57 years later!
