Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am sorry for the long time between posts, but there were some personal family issues to take care of.
So without further ado, Here are the photos of the aft section (including the engine exhausts).

Here is the aft section. As you can see, I have raised most of the printed texture to give it more depth.


Starting with the base for the engines and building up the exhaust section. As you can see I have raised most of the printed texture.


I louvered the vests on the exhausts.


The exhausts are finished.


The exhausts are attached.


Next, I will work on the lower wings (stabilizers), underside components and landing gear.

Thank you! I am really enjoying this build.
Although, as I am building it, I have had thoughts of what else I could do with the detail. Like layering each panel to get the realistic look of the recessed panel lines (However, if I were to do that, it would take me a very long time just to build one model).

Here are the lower stabilizers, under section, and landing gear.

Starting with the lower stabilizers.
This is the underside of the stabilizers.


This is the Port side stabilizer.


This is the Starboard side stabilizer.


Here are the components of the underside of the fuselage.


All of the components are attached.


The landing gear is attached.


Next is the upper vertical stabilizers and cockpit canopy.

Here is the latest update.
Here is the rear canopy.



I continued on with the canopy assembly.
This is the arch between both canopies.


The arch is in place.


The front piece of the canopy is attached.


Here is the front canopy.


The front canopy is attached,


Here the top vertical stabilizers.


The Top vertical stabilizers are attached and the model is finished.


I will be giving this to my son. I hope that he will like it.
