That looks fantastic. Looking forward to the next update.
The detail colors on the engines, are those clears or opaque? I am looking for colors to use myself end thought clear red,yellow, green and blue would work.

I just spent an hour catching up on this build........... wow, I need a cigarette! 
I can't tell you how siked I am to see this. You are a wizard! Subscribed?!? DUH!!!!!! Keep up the great work, my friend. One of these days you will have to make a kit of one of your scratch-builds so you can retire... but I hope you never stop building models.

Too Drunk too get to technical tonight...... SO
Pix
Additional underside floor panels
Dry fit of the side pod assemblies
Tube
Cut
Sanded and dry fittted
Fitted detail pods for side downward thruster thingies
With vents in position
Started to position the side pod / intake geometry stuff, I am really making this up as I go at this stage.
Underside details with tea tray and ride hight wing assembly
The technical term for this type of building is bodge-it-and-scarper technoligies
I know the rough shape I want i just don't have foam and a vac former to hand right now, so super glue streach with masking tape and bend that styrene people,
This is my method, remember, everything can be filled and sanded,
Cut and fit underside panels
Started work on the top profile
Made a big step forward tonight about the final overall rear end profile.
Thats it for tonight friends,
Trust me, I'm a raft guide
Take care

Your pedals are upside down!
Fantastic work and great attention to detail.

Outside of the creativity and obvious building skills which stand by themselves, he never fails to give us pictures that show everything in detail with clarity. That kind of quality is stupid-good. Just sayin.
Evenin All,
Thanks for stopping by guys. I appreciate it.
Thanks for pointing this out mate, I knew they looked wrong but couldn't put my finger on why and then you commented and that was that, my peddles were upside down, so I corrected that,
Aaaaaand we're Building, building, building,
Altered the side frames for the actuators
Added detail for a small underfloor section
Added detail under the dash section
Everything ready for primer, Mmmmmmm
Started on the canopy inside details
The overhead ejector seat controls
Canopy Primer.
Started on the rear end profile
And thats about as far as i've gotten.
Stay tuned my friends
Take care
