Cockpit painted.

With the nose setting, I moved onto some surgery removing the requried parts from the kit.

With the nose dry and fuselage cemented, the met in harmony, well almost.

Moving onto the CFT's, some sanding and scraping of the resing parts was required so they married the fuselage better, fixed with SG.

The replacement U/C hubs, antennae and defence equipment were cemented using SG.

Added here was the vents and the additional Hardpoints with some filling of the join from the CFT's.

Now, the wolfpack set is vitally missing the additional LAU-128's and the ADU-552's. Fortunately i have some LAU's but had to scratch build the ADU's using the F-15e website. I thin they turned out well.

They were then cemented together to the main rail.

A little addition is the bump ontop of the fuselage using a bit of plastic rod sanded down.
