Thanks for the comments gents – always welcome. @gblair, the Tamiya Emil has a flaw in the forms that ensures the tail is never straight unless you do something (like the alignment-check tool in your Spit build). @johnb, it is indeed. Thanks @fiveten.

These were filled with evergreen and sanded.
The slats were installed
using a pair of cut-offs to ensure they stayed open as the tabs had been cut.
next up it looks like the greenhouse goes on?
