It's now starting to come together nicely with a mixture of leopard club parts and scratch details. The front mud guards and light areas can do with a bit of work, mostly adding bolts and some brackets using plastic card. I've also added the weld line using Mr dissolved putty again.
The engine deck has now had handles added from lead wire and some tools fitted. Also the rear hull is starting to take shape, you can also see the weld lines for the exhausts.
And finally lots of work has been needed on the stowage bins. I removed the protection plates from each end of the bins as per my references and then had to add a lid lip to the two shorter bins. For some reason this is evident on the long bin but missing on the short ones. Again another case of very poor Revell quality control during the mold making stages I suspect. The crew heater cover was stippled lightly with Mr surfacer and the two bin protector plates made from plastic card.
