UPDATE 12 (The final update)

This is my final update before my reveal, fitted the last few parts, external underwing fuel tanks, pitot statics on the canopy and the last two undercarriage doors.
Gave her a last coat of varnish, when I removed the canopy masks I wasn't impressed that the PVA glue used on the nose weights had run over the inside of the canopy :bash: had to remove the canopy for a second time and clean it up.

Won't get a chance to take the photos for the reveal until after the Easter hols, will post it mid next week :banana:

Any feedback would be appreciated :thumb2:
