Added rivets to upper and lower wings, and a couple of patches to the 'fuselage'. This took a long time... I cut tiny bits of polystyrene rod. Then I dabbed glue on the plates with a toothpick and picked up the bits by just touching a blade to them, before gluing them on.
Getting the pilot inside is going to be tricky. He will need a block under his seat to raise him to cockpit height. I may paint the interior and mask/fill it before painting the exterior. I am considering constructing the canopy from strips and girders (with more rivets of course) and only partially glazing it. Still considering whether to add Grot door gunners, and to put weapons in the holes under the 'cheeks' of the nose area.
