Glad you are back to building the Javelin, Brian (@f-104nut). I had to go back and review the build. The cockpit is looking good. Interesting approach to paint the tail first. The Javelin really looks like a proper plane with the tail on.

Gunsight finally installed and last of the cockpit area done Window frame arepainted with my own tamiya cockpit black mix .. Windshield glued on and masking next . Other ejection seat mating of the resin seat with the kit frame done. Triming and fitting was not near as perfect as the first one. But by the time the seat is painted and installed it really wont be noitcable .

The javelin is looking really cool, Brian @f-104nut. The distinctive shape is really starting to come together.
