Just about ready to put the wings on, but needed to re-scribe due to the added plastic card.

Great work mate

Been sat outside in the nice weather, and got the wings fitted.

Still work to do on the seams, but I’ll do that when the glue dries.

Looking good Ian and what a great idea. A friend of mine gave me a few kits he'd started and didn't complete. I've checked them and there are to many parts missing for completion so I could mash them together to see what I could up with based on your idea. Brilliant mate keep up the good work. Cheers John

Thanks John, it would be great to see what you come up with, if you’re going to have a go.

Superb mate

Got some stretched sprue to fill the gap, then added Tamiya extra thin to make the joint even stronger. Then added my own made filler .

After some sanding today, I put some paint on the joints to see how good or bad it looks.

Some touching up to do still, but getting there.

I think it’s ready for some primer now.

Got it painted black, just to see what work needs doing.

It looks like there’s some work to do.
