    Landing lights, right, Spiros@fiveten? You’ve got this totally dialed. Every bit as good looking as that 1/48 AMT/Ertl/Italeri P-70 you built awhile ago.

    Thanks my friends @lis and @eb801! Yes these holes are for the landing lights that I am going to replicate with Clearfix, as well as the rear small oval side windows.

    No, all parts were there, my friend @lis, the kit was perfect and complete...

    I just prefer to replicate small clear openings with Clearfix: it dries nicely clear and I avoid masking 🙂

    I added a primitive gunsight from a clear styrene piece...

    Nice work on the gunsight, Spiros @fiveten
    Makes it more realistic.

    Somethings get better with age. Adding the canopies and the wheels and knowing you have made something special is a natural high for me. Its that plastic addiction. I thinks it holds true for many modelers.

    Spiros Pendedekas (@fiveten) ,

    Your a monster in the category of productivity and creativity. Its been fun watching things develop and evolve in this build. Some of the Revell kits can be spotty and others turn out well as you have proven.
