Letting it dry before Igo paintin' it... :hmmm :tomato
 
Seems I'm back on this here beast!! :woohoo: :geek just starting to put the canopies on but, looks like I gotta leave the pilot's sliding canopy off & do it separately as it overlaps the center one. The gunner's canopy I think I'll attach with Elmer's white glue so I can remove it to install the machine gun after painting...
Heres where I is now...
