Good afternoon. I am going to start adding photo reference in one spot in addition to whatever I drop into my own project and your projects, too.

To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Thanks for posting that Bruce - that's the first image I've seen that shows three nose glass panels - which is what my kit has, and looking behind the pilots seat it would appear that that centre section of roof panels isn't clear - which is also a great help.

Thank you for the cockpit photos, Lyle! Stuart—I will do a quick search for more reference. I seem to recall the interior cockpit bracing which bisects the canopy is mounted on the inside of the frame, as well. That was a detail I was considering whether it was worth masking and painting from inside the canopy piece. Thoughts?

Thoughts.... I just slapped some paint on in what looked vaguely the right area To be serious - I don't think that sort of thing matters too much with such an old kit like I'm building, with it's thick clear parts. It might be worth it with your kit if the parts are thin - but in 1/72 would you get the benefit of all the time and effort taken to do the masking?
