I've been plugging away at this kit for over a year now, having at it in fits and starts dancing around other projects. Recently I made good progress and was able to close up the hull. I had hoped to leave the top detachable but it just wouldn't sit right without being glued down, a process that included applying clamps. So this is what I have so far, moving ahead to decals and final painting/weathering.
