What did you do? put it in the oven to speed the paint drying time?

Being a wise guy, eh?
Well, this is as far as I’m going to go with this tonite.
Fuselage assembled
IP Drybrushed and cockpit installed
Tomorrow I will get the seam clean up done and all the major assemblies added. It should be some serious construction progress.

Mike, I was thinking the same thing. After all, he IS retired....
Coming along nicely, Carlos. But, let's pick it up a bit, okay?
