Medic's Texas Viper

All things jet, no props and Stik...no armor even though the M1 is turbin powered.

Finally got the nose stiffener plates attached. These were not nearly as easy to install as the others.

Sorry for the long time between updates. I've been trying to make progress with the F-4 and the F-102. Been working on the canopies for the Viper. Need to work more on getting the main one clearer after getting rid of the seam down the middle. I test fitted the canopy and the instrument cowling kept getting in the way. More work to figure out why. Think I got it now.

I always follow because there is a lot to learn and your work is really inspiring. It is tough balancing several builds at once. Canopy looks good! Are you trying to fit areas front to back or side to side?
