Fine work going on there Glenn.

Nicely done so far Glenn!

I finished all the filling and sanding of seams on the fuselage and the wings and glued them together.

The joints weren't bad except for the underside of the leading-edge wing roots which will need some work.

The horizontal stabilizers were devoid of panel lines so I added them.

Nice Glen

Very cool Glenn, though the antenna wires look a tad thick

Thats for ultra long-range reception Andy

That's a pretty cool way of holding it together.

Looks good Glenn and ready for a sling shot launch.

Neato

I drilled out the guns in the gun bulges and glued them and the intake onto the cowl and smoothed out all the joints.

Glued on the horizontal stabilizers and worked on the wing to fuselage joints and it's ready for paint.
Now I need to see what I have in my dwindling enamel paint stock in light blue-gray.

I made up this painting guide based on all the available info I had some time ago and thought I had posted it, but looking back I see that I did not, so here it is.
