Short bump - quick update

Been doing little bits here and there...I've built four cockpits so far.
Three Nose assemblies...working on the fourth.
And two rear fuselage halves.

All this because I am modifying the design at the same time as I introduce new details and parts.
I'm also running into small problems in a couple of areas...
one being the engine, and wing root design.
With Nobi's help, we have sorted out some changes and he is updating the basic template.

I also just started a test build of the Snowbird's artwork...



and introduced some new exhaust parts for the tail end of the plane.
Which have worked out quite nicely.
(Nobi is also designing for me, the rear fairing and smoke/diesel injector nozzles)

While assembling the Snowbirds fuselage, I got to try out my updated Speedbrake recesses and door assemblies.
Unfortunately, this brought to light another design problem with the model.
...and some related assembly problems have now led to me redesign the rear fuselage

and once again, Nobi is modifying the template to my instructions.
(lol Poor guy!)

Anyway, I am slowing down with test builds until I get the new template,
and then I'll probably start again with another Snowbird's test.

Stay tuned bat-fans!
