I put the mass balances on the ailerons backwards and I'm going to have to watch more "weathering" videos. There are a few very minor paint imperfections. The canopy is a literal greenhouse, yikes my eyes still hurt. I have not painted the red and green wing lights (yet); I have green but not a suitable red yet.

The stand is 1/16 square tube and 1/8 round superglued together. There is 3/32 square tube glued inside the plane.

Well done.

Good finish. We need a pic from 6 oclock and slightly above though. It's one of the 6 required shots.
