Thanks everyone!

A bit more done and a bit closer to the finish. All frame s were lost when I was polishing the windshield so I marked them with thin strips of masking tape. There is also a strange fogging, but luckily this will be covered with paint.

Then I put a piece of tape over it, traced it an cut out.

All other transparencies were masked to, followed by another layer of primer and a round of sanding.
Kits wheels looked bad too so I made new rims out of punched out discs.

I added brake lines to the main landing gear using led and copper wire.

At this point I was fed up with rescribing, so I took a shortcut and made some panels with aluminium tape.

And this is all detailing I'm willing to make on this model. Another round of primer follows then it's off to painting.

Impressive work so far!

Thank you! I didn't know this was in a movie!

This one is now painted. It took a lot of masking, but it was worth it!

This wasn't the best kit and I was really rushing it, but I like how it came out.

Thank you for looking in!
 
Man that is some incredible work!!!

Always heard that polishing your canopy too much can make your lines disappear/go blind, but this is the 1st proof of it I’ve seen
 
Fantastic work!...the window frames "construction" looks very impressive...all in all, superb! (y)

Luiz.
