OK-- some progress finally. Need to add some washes to the panels before I close things up...
Image

Some close ups of the side panels--

Image

The instructions said to glue the panel decal on with the paper backing and not to separate them-- but I am not a fan of that idea- so I went with applying the decal and using Micro Sol on it....
Image

Started the wing assembly-- some homemade filler ought to fix up some of the unsightly parts...
Image

And lastly the figures with a spot of paint-- the faces seem a bit off to me-- not so much German...more so like some of the Soviet provincial folks-- but I will add some depth and then start on the uniform...

Thanks for looking! Comments are welcome!

The old Stuka is coming along very nicely!

Good deal! I know I'm in no position to push for updates... :bag:
