Hi, guys, I've been following your builds very closely. Wanted to join the group build but then I wanted to document my build a bit easier so I decided to start another thread. Here's my progress from the past 3 weeks so far:


After seeing Jaitea's thinned canopy I just had to thin mine as well:

But then after I saw his beautiful glassed canopy, I wanted to take a stab at it, too. Maybe I'll try it later on. Sorry, John, but your work is just infectious. What I have qualms about trying, though, is lowering the raised detailing on the cockpit tunnel. I still couldn't figure out how you guys managed to accomplish that. Crazy skills you guys have!
