I decided to paint second figure of pilot for cockpit from my spare box. Airfix has two types of figures. Larger with very fine details, and smaller, that looks as vintage Airfix figures from older boxes. Not my best work but I hope it will looks good on cockpit.

Dry fit of canopy. Canopy don’t fit perfect and I will need some white glue as putty. Cockpit has one pilot more. Figure from my spare box is slightly different than one from original box. But Also from Airfix.

Great job on the canopy, my friend @lis! Surely the tiny gaps will be nicely filled with white glue.
No problem that the second figure looks different.
