Down to the fuselage assembly.
Hand painted a lot of the stuff.
Sometimes adding on for fun and effect bites one right on the butt. My levers and floor add ons?
Well let's just say the floor under the seat was left open for a reason and I had to hack out all my added bits.
And have discovered the fuselage is not Flat at the seams and had to glue nose first and tail last!!!
The struggle goes on.

Well Old Vic.
I have destroyed the canopy and I have a suspicion there was no convertible version.
It's put me off and I'm concentrating on Merlin's Magic now.
Don't have a clue what I'm going to do with this Russian AC!

What part of the canopy did you bust, if it is the sliding part I may have something that may fit, give me a pic and I'll see what I have that may almost match. 
Bummer......Bill....

And the Two of the three top colors on.
Have to decal it before the white Winter top coat goes on.
Don't think the pattern is correct, but!
