Thanks Mark for your good comments. I'm just glad the hard part of this build is now behind me. :shoutout:

This morning saw the finish of the aerial antenna and I'm currently working on those painting those 2000 rivets on the cockpit framing. :shocked:

Thanks Kevin!

Well.....I finished the screw head application as of this morning but still need to weather the framing somewhat to tone the brightness of the screw detail down. They pop just a little too loudly.
