Way behind on updates here again.

Anyway, got the vertical control surfaces done and installed, the main landing gear fabricated and installed and the horizontal control surfaces built up and installed.

The main gear tires had several stepped layers of lamination, so I slathered on some automotive glazing putty, chucked the wheels into my newly acquired rotary dremel style tool and sanded to shape. there is just enough of a hint of the layers after paint to suggest tread.

The horizontal control surfaces are quite complex and required many extra appendages that I was not born with.

I have two turrets with machine guns and the main canopy yet to build up and install. This one is finally winding down.
