Attaching the framing
I use this from AC Moore craftshop to glue the paper strips to the plastic. Knock on wood it hasn't let loose yet, it dries clear and holds the plastic to the fuselage also. I cut out the framing sections; heres a tip, either print on the reverse side of the frame the interior colour or paint it before you cut out those little squares, if you do it after you will get interior colour on the exterior strips! The last pic is dry fitting the glass to fuselage. When I make the molds I sqeeze the sculpey a little before baking so the glass is a little narrower than the fuselage it fits to. This allows the natural thinness of the glass to grip the fuselage when you glue it on. Sometimes if you have to squeeze the glass to fit the fuselage it can pry apart in places....
