Good progress, Spiros @fiveten
Did she require some weight in the nose to keep it down?
Spiros Pendedekas said 4 months ago:

Thanks my friend @johnb! Arma Hobby supplies three steel balls that are nearly trapped in the nose at a special base.
Spiros Pendedekas said 4 months ago:

Sanding almost done, an intake splitter was added from thin sheet styrene and the nose gun openings were drilled out..

Here's the underside...

Nice that Arma Hobby provided the nose weights. I wish more kit manufacturers would do that.
John vd Biggelaar said 4 months ago:

The intake splitter looks really nice, very thin, Spiros @fiveten

Yes, it is very cool to get the nose weights with the kit, Spiros (@fiveten). I remember building a Monogram Airacobra and needed a bunch of weight to hold it down. Detail looks really nice.

Thanks my friends @eb801, @johnb and @gblair! Yes, the weights provided are really cool, wish all manufacturers did that.

Ready for painting...
John vd Biggelaar said 4 months ago:

Looking smooth, Spiros @fiveten
Eagerly awaiting the paint job.

Thanks my friend @johnb!
Spiros Pendedekas said 4 months ago:

Some extra sanding, as I missed a spot the camera didn't and neutral gray applied...
John vd Biggelaar said 4 months ago:

Somehow cameras do reveal a lot more than we often observe ourselves, Spiros @fiveten
Glad it was noticed prior to painting.
