    Your clear parts came out very nice. I especially like how the side blisters turned out. Very realistic looking. Well done !

    Rudder, rivets and panel lines adjusted and now super-glued to fuselage, next to work on the elevators.

    Allan, them waist blisters look really good, with or without a cleanup. Tough part of any build, and them dee-cals!

    Propellers painted a while ago, tail-planes on today, sick of fiddling around with rivets and panel lines ! hope they come up OK ! a bit of work around the fillets and then some paint and I'll see how it looks.
