After putting all the small bits and pieces into place, the kit is ready for its first coal of clear varnish in preparation for decals. It has to be said that the belly copula sub-assembly is something of a miniature nightmare. Seven parts, five of them of clear plastic, two of which need to be almost completely painted in the end - why complicate things like that? And the only fitting comment for the fact that Revell chose to split a tiny machine gun sited in its rear in two minuscule parts is 'ridiculous'.
All right, rant mode off... just remember to dry-fit the belly copula often before you pick up the glue!
Not very keen on having to drill my own position holes
before being able to fit dive breaks in place.
I'm sure it can be done a lot better, but the belly copula sub-assembly
turned out to be beyond my skills.
Waiting for first coat of clear varnish.
