Parts K13 and K14 in place...they look a little wobbly and this is largely a result of it being too long since my last paper modelling build. I should have cut off the tabs that are meant to provide a larger glueing surface for each part as they really just get in the way and skew the shape of the part. I am not too worried, though as I don't think that the wobbliness will be that visible inside the cockpit.
Due to the flimsiness of the cockpit floor, I have decided to add reinforcing strips along the interior edges of the folds...
...and am using these low-res copies to make templates to go inside these parts to provide a firm edge along which to bend the sides...
I unashamedly stole this idea from these parts, which are laminated onto thing card to strengthen parts K15 and K19 on the upper cockpit walls...
