Work continues on the Prowler. Got the pour blocks cut off the resin parts from the Aires cockpit. I white glued the instrument panels/comings to the cockpit so that I could test fit the entire thing into the fuselage. Doesn't look too bad.

Aftermarket upgrades… check
Reference materials… check
Kit of subject… check

Houston we are a go for this project :boxing:

I forgot to tell you guys. The Viper got mentioned on the Plastic Posse Podcast. They were talking about builds that they liked from their Facebook group and someone said my Viper. They even pronounced my last name correctly.

Thank you! It was funny cause I had just gotten to work and was listening to the podcast. They mentioned it and I was like "WHAT??" I had to go back and listen to it again. I couldn't believe it cause I've seen some of the builds on the page and I'm no where near as good as some of these guys.
