I got too caught up in the Comic Con to take WIP pics at home, but I did get a pic of the tables where we held our display. YOu can see how far Ive gotten on teh Cosmo Falcon--most of the body is built up, as are the wings.
Which, if you see teh yellow line running across the fuselage there....thats where I had to do minor surgery. The big blue piece that was the top of the fuse was about 1/16 inch TOO LONG!!! I trimmed some plastic out of the middle, and sanded everything smooth. Other than that, all the pieces fit perfectly. The wings and tail just slot right in to their tabs snugly, and there are no gaps at teh wingroots at all. There were multiple times I got caught saying that model airplane manufacturers really need to take some tips from BANDAI.
