Thanks guys.

Superglue filler around the edge of the upper cowl section as this is not a panel line, then went to work filing and sanding back to a nice clean finish, also added the Intake to the port side cowl and slipped the oil tank section into the front of the cowl...not glued just yet!

I tend to favour thick primer paint to fill those kinds of joints as I find CA hard to shape. One of many options I guess. Looks good though Wayne.
 
I've been a bit slack over the last week or so Wayne and am now doing the catch-up. Happy New Year to you and what superb stuff you are producing, also like you instructions on the IP build.

a delicately handled round file does the initial job of cutting back the CA Andy, followed by the 600 800 sandpaper....

Ok further progress from yesterday and today, added the leading edge slats and the flaps, filled and sanded the holes for the G-6 cannon bulges, added the Oil cooler section under the nose and added the grilles too(forgot pics), filled the antenna hole for later models again with the CA filed and sanded, added the exhausts and covers too. finally today I managed to get the first paint on, the Yellow tactical markings.
