Great Dave, hey if you want some other decals, I have a couple of old sheets from the Fujimi kit you're welcome to.

Thanks Guys

This kit is falling together All of a sudden I can remember why we build so many of these Matchbox kits as kids they fit very nicely - No detail but fit great

Neat approach to the wings Dave. :popcorn
Yes I saw a guy do it on Youtube that way It really helps to get the angle of the wing that way and you dont have to build a special jig to keep the wings in position untill the glue is dry - ONLY TO FIND SOME HUGE HOLES IN THE FIT!!!

This way there is almost no weight on the wing to pull it away from the proper cambre.
 
Just did not want to stare at that seat inside there every time so spent an quick hour modifying it slightly

Thanks Dave

Spent the rest of my modeling night cleaning up the bombs and getting them ready to be painted.
