Thanks Thomas! Nearly done now.

I actually thought I'd be wrapped up last night after adding the canopy pieces & taking pictures. So I opened up the box, pulled those pieces out, then noticed my PE fret.... and it still had pieces on it.... ALL the pieces for the pilot's armour plate assembly. DOH!!!! So, I think I have the place to myself tonight, should be able to add that, get it painted up & call it done.

Unless I've forgotten anything else.

I hope.

:scream:

Armour plate section one… 5PE parts

How small ARE these parts? The little brackets with the "fingers" on them:

I managed to bungle up the fold on those lower connection points so they've been omitted in favour of more CA along the bottom of the plate! [-]

Paint tonight.

Can you take another pic with a US Quarter next to that coin for scale comparison?
