The base of the windshield did not go well. I must see what I can do to fix it.

Looks like a very sturdy model. What ws the window problem?

My engine nacelle is too low on the model. Might have to do some major surgery before continuing.

Must be something about the nose on the Beaver. I ended cutting it off of the model I built twice to try and get it to look right.

Nice fix! I like how you made a generous cut and block to work with.

It seems to work. Putty is drying.

Getting there. White primer and final sanding will be done before semi-gloss white paint.

Thank you Gordon and Paul. I have been tinkering with it a few minute here and there. I want to clear my bench for other 1/32 projects so I decided to move the Beaver along.

It's always nice to have a bit of progress.
