Well it just dawned on me that I forgot to install the armor plate on the canopy, then went back and looked at the reference photos and this E-4 did not have one, lucky mistake but I assumed all E-4 had them??

Hmm, I have also though so, that E-4 was more or a less the first version that got the armorplate installed behind the pilot... :hmm:

Going to be working on this one here pretty soon, got some supplies with my shipment so decals will be going on along with another clear coat and then a wash. That is the game plan for the weekend. I gotta time it so parts getting cleared are done as a part of a batch so until then...
