i'm not lucky with the canopy. It's broken, and one of the most important part lost ... So I had to fix it. I used milliput, but I'm not talented. :(

And here is the idea. Waiting for repair in the hangar bay. It's a styrene sheet, on a wood stand.

Another way of solving that problem is to use the canopy as a master model to heat smash a new canopy with clear plastic.
On the right side of the picture is a broken caonpy that I glued and filled. On the left side a wooden frame in which I attach a piece of clear plastic. The heat the plastic over a stove and pull it over the orignal oeice. It useally takes a couple of tires but the end reulst can be quite good.

You may have to do this over again, so think of this as another chance to do it better. Do or do not.... right? You got this, Corel.
