I'm calling this done now. I'll post the pics in the air gallery.
For Frans, you can see in the pics how the canopy is constructed. There's just no way of getting rid of the lugs as they are in a clear part of the canopy. HPH made a1/32 resin Arado, so you might be able to find a vacform canopy?
Also, I'd consider making the antenna mast from brass. I had real trouble getting the antenna tight, it just kept pulling the mast back and going slack. I had already swapped the mast on the tail for brass, so that helped me a little.
Hope these tips are of some use to you mate, cheers!
