Hi Chris,
Nice work on that glazing.
Are they plastic or clear resin?
Bigkev
They are vacformed plastic then cut to fit.
Wow! I bet that was exciting!

After a bit of a fight with the fuselage halves - one was a bit warped - I have finally managed to get them together and got the glazing in. Now to progress a bit quicker.

Been a bit slow recently, but here are the undersides done in blue. Upper surfaces look like a a cmouflage pattern of an earth colour and a blue - grey. There's got be a grey somewhere.
