Well here I am. The build is nearing completion.

I had some big issues with the decals. I had to spray the tail checkerboard. I had some other issues. I am not all that pleased with the decals, they were fragile and very fiddly.

i am about 95% finished with the kit. I do have the prop, the antenna wire, the tail wheel doors, and some tiny bits left.

This will be the last update from me until the article either gets printed or I get a no go for it.

Great work! Dont you love it when a piece co-operates????

As for the clamp misfire. If you get a bike inner tube and cut small squares and glue them to to the clamp, it will help prevent slippage and prevent mauling plastic or paint.

Looks REALLY good, Joe.
Sorry to hear that the decals fought you so much
