Thanks for lookin in and the comments.
Is there another Has kit with so few parts???????

I've done some painting for the pit.
Shadows and stuff later along with the IP.


This side inlet lacked the butterfly.
Just a punched disc stuffed in the hole (1).
There is a gap under the front, so I filed the underside back (2)
This part is in two pieces, ridding it of the seam got rid of the recesses so I had to file and sand them back in (3)


These two at the underside are also in two pieces, and match up okay,
but again sanding back the seams makes it a bit ugly, again filing and sanding the detail in.
These are distinquished by one and two pins to locate in a recess. However the tail end openings didn't match the groove.
So I had to elongate the pins holes to twist the part (4) to match the the cover outlet.

Now I gotta go mow a bloody lawn!!!!!
 
Thanks guys, this may be my fastest build EVER!!!!!!

Clearance lights.
Hogged out the wing light area, knife and square file.
File the end of clear spru smooth and square to the length, 90 degrees!!!!!
Flattened one edge of clear spru 90 degrees to the finished end only slightly or it will not fill the area.
Drill a .5mm hole about .5 to .75mm deep.
Fill the hole with red paint for Port wing, green for starboard.
Let dry over night, sand off excess paint....
Attach to cut out, I used Tamiya Extra Thin cement.
Again let set over night.
File till just even or above wing profile.
Finish sand with med then fine grit!
