I had to add thin styrene strips and clear epoxy to help with the fit.
philo426 Thanks!the funny thing is ...whenI built the P61 I had very little problem with canopy fit!

Philo you indeed are a glutton for punishment! But, WOW!! Great big E for excellence!

Looking good, Philo! That nose turned out really good. I know the effort you put into it. If I remember correctly, the "gun nose cone" was way too small....and the gun bay doors being "wonky". Can't wait to see it finished.
Personally and to be honest, I always like Revellogram and other crappy models, I feel like I accomplished something when they are done and look pretty good. Might be just me tho, lol!
Later down the green.next up:masking and painting the invasion stripes.
Thanks!if all goes well I think I am entering the home stretch!
You are a persistent feller. I tip my hat to you.
Watching with interest......
I was thinking if the seams weren't so bad and the canopy fit I might well be just about done by now!
Well I work nights so I can work about 3 hour s on it a day throughout the day.
I am amazed at how quickly you are able to move forward on this model. How much time in a day do you work on it?
Your comments and questions are always welcome.
The od I will use is darker but I wanted to see how well I did on the seams
.I am pleased with the results but the canopy is a disappointment.
Clear filler panel fitted up.I will mask it off prior to painting.
Wow can't remember the last time I had to do so much body work !including custom cars!well after the canopy conundrum is sorted out I can primer and paint!
Wow that’s alot of putty! I love the bondo spot putty myself. You can really feather it out on flat surfaces. Excellent looking build so far!
In the pattern: Scale Shipyard's 1/48 Balao Class Sub! leaning out the list...NOT! Ha, added to it again - Viper MkVii, 1/32 THUD & F-15J plus a weekend madness build!
Canopy parts fit is poor .Iwill glue in clear acetate panels to salvage the situation.
Yes had to wet sand quite a bit!

Okay now I have the nose section whipped into decent shape.
Looks great to me!I must have got a bad kit .
I saw this thread last week and was going to give you a heads up about the gun bay doors. I always wondered if they fir that bad 50 years ago with brand new molds. It took me a long time to get them to look "ok".
I built this last year for Stik's Mafia GB. It's the "good" side....good luck!" target="">
