All four the models are now like the above picture. I have also removed today some scratches from the canopies and dipped them in some Klear. These now need to dry overnight so that I can place them tomorrow. I have also bought todat some white primer. this will be used as a first coat to look if everything is ok later on. I have also thought about painting some of the decals myself together with some of the kit decals.

The exhausts are cleaned up and ready for some paint. The downside is that everything stalls because I need to do something about the standard.

I hope to have soon a fix for that.

And here are some pictures of what has been done today. I have placed the canopies and the two bumps on the side of nose. 

I have also tested some cheap white primer out of a can on two fuel tanks to see if it works (and it does!).

I don't use them so if it would have gone wrong I would still be safe.

 

The tape is still holding the canopie as the glue isn't dry jet.

and the four models lying in formation for further work.

 

Cheers,
