Puma Progress

The pace of the build has slowed slightly due in part to the fiddly PE and having to add a load of tiny lugs to the hull sides. The bracket on the hull roof was a bastard to bend correctly but I got there in the end. Of course once shaped it would not fit the lugs on the roof so I just shaved them off, fitted to the underside and glued in place.

The lugs along the side of the hull are really tiny and you need to be ultra careful removing them. Here I found that they should have a recess in the ends so I drilled each one out on the sprue. A tedious and mind numbing task but also strangely satisfying at the same time!
