Belts installed, hairy stick work done, fuselage zipped together. Just a little twist needed to get it all lined up and minimal work needed on the seam line. Got to love Tamiya engineering, very little challenging from them.- KarlW

I'm a big fan of my HobbyZone paint hangers, they're great for 17ml dropper bottles but their solution for other bottles, four slightly canted shelves, is not great. Found these from EMBA hobby, similar idea, holds a lot and reasonably inexpensive. Just have to rearrange my wall now. -

They're Perry's 28mm, at the start of covid 6 of us pledged to do a big lockdown project and we agreed to buy the Perry's starter set and paint it up. Of course it didn't stop there......
