Got everything cleaned up and rescribed. Just need to reprime and check my work. Now I'm working on cleaning up the drop tanks, getting the seat painted and masking the canopies.

Well being a Tamiya kit, the fit is not what I expected.
Tell me about it brother. I'm going through that right now on my 262. :headslap:

This is coming along very nicely so far Mike. All the hard work is gonna pay off.

You have gotten farther along than I ever did with the three kits that I started. You're a better modeler than I, Gunga Din.

I don't mind cleaning up fuselage, wing joints etc but I find cleaning up drop tanks and ordnance particularly annoying.
