Have you been able to identify some of the pieces?
I don't work on it last night and probably won't get to it tonight to tomorrow night.

Now that the Perry and Spruance are nearing completion, I can get some work done on the SB MO. I sanded, added more filler, repeat, repeat, repeat. Finally thought I had it good enough to paint it black to see where I was and what needed attention.

Not as bad as I thought, just a little more to go. Once this is done I'm just going to attach the other engine nozzel to the lower section, then on to the superstructure.

I had some time to work on the SBMO. The engine nozzles are complete and now working on the "pods" on the wings and tail. Using drop tanks of course. I'm also thinking of ways to make the gun barrels more :hmm: futuristic.
