I made a jig to align the wings. Popsicle sticks did the trick.

The masking tape for the wings finally arrived. The wings are painted and assembled. Mating of the fuselage will take place shortly.

Another 1/2 hour of filling and sanding. Priming took two minutes and a couple of hours of drying time. I have since added gun blisters to make a Mk V as the Above and Below decals do not have a Canadian Mk II. Next will be the coolers and carb scoop.

The wing filets are oversized and will be sanded to their proper shape.

Something new I started this morning and spent a couple of hours, researching, printing, and carving to block shape. Should I donate my RCAF aircraft to the museum, I will need replacements for my collection. The 1/100 scale is a bit bigger than 1/144 but will free up more space for the previous 1/72 and bigger scale models.

 BAT FK23 and DH71 put in long term fiddle with when the mood is right box.

 "Mystery Model" proceeding along at slightly faster than snails pace.

 Battle - revised approach and proceeding.
