Sorta reminds me of Christmas......actually snowed here today, and not just a little.

Had a back n forth session today on 3 builds, one base.... so here i fitted the PE outstanding on the Comet, minus 2 pieces i will add after top bttm hull assembly....





Still a dead fiddly, testing job, but rewarding.....
