I notice the Zap-A-Gap bottle (I think) at the edge of your cutting board.... if so, is that what you use to secure the PE pieces? Have you checked into the UV hardening adhesives? If so, what’s your take on these?
Yes it is Zap-A-Gap super glue. I use it to attach resin and PE. Never tried the UV stuff.

Man I love the look of an all black A-10 - what a mean looking aircraft. Superb work Medic!

Had a little step on one side of the canopy. Sanded and fixed it.

Great save, Medic! Super scratchbuilding—you fitted the piece beautifully. What a relief to catch this now before painting camp begins! Good luck!!!
