Vic, took a half hour to get one of the wing gun shrouds to fit A wing.
Little bumps from the sprue, and the part edge flashing, gadzooks!
The Combination of assemblies that fit together is painful.
It's like putting watch parts together, maybe Schindler made them????
I have that same kit for the Mustang build. But.............. it has a modified racing canopy
with a modified "B" model spine down the back to the tail.
Sometimes I wish they would remove the panel lines to replicate
the factory panel and rivet filling. No matter what I do seems they never get...
If anyone recalls I suggested the old granny type hair thingies.
If the tips are bent the will reach over stuff. The box is 100 pieces,
so I have some with one leg cut off, some cut down to about 10mm.
Not much of a sacrifice from 100 pieces!!!! 👍
So I have found the parts fit too snug at times.
This for example, 1, I had to take a bit off, 0.5mm.
2, around this flat area a bit more than 0.5mm.
Sand test fit, sand test fit. Much better, not as
much force to get fuselage halves together.
