I managed to wreck those lense pieces removing them from the casting blocks. I  could probably order replacements from Eduard but with the current state of Australia Post I don't like my chances getting it in the next couple months. Looks like I'll be experimenting with resin

Getting there. Still have to wait for the UV resin kit to arrive to do the front of the AGM-65's and replace the kit ones but other than that I should be finished tonight!

Almost there! Just waiting on the resin to be delivered to fix those last two missiles. Then it'll be time to remove the masks and have a photo shoot.

Here's a sneak preview:

Making the lenses on the front of the AGM 65's with UV cured resin. Not going to win me any competitions but it's a serviceable result.

WARNING!!!! UV cured resin and UV curing lamps can be hazardous to your health. Use appropriate PPE

Installing the pylons before mounting the AGM 65's onto the rails was a mistake. It's a very tight fit that requires you to be quite brutal so that's left me with a little repair work.
