    Al, just curious... Are all the detail parts along the center of that bottom pic shifted to the left and a little off-center? If so, is that intentional to match the studio model? Love seeing the progress.

    I made the mold for the first two cargo boxes, and cast the pieces. and also got the lower piece with some panel lines and details. next i will mold the cone and and engine detail parts and begin working on how to mold the cockpit, which should be a fun little mold.

    Thanks for looking.
