Not many parts here. Removing the casting block from the main fuselage/wings part is not that easy task nevertheless... 

Fit of the intakes is not perfect... 

Fit of the intakes is not perfect... 

The instructions advice to put 10 grams of weight into the nose, but there is not much room there - I managed to insert ca. 5 grams... hope this will be enough to prevent tailsitting. 

Some heavy duty equipment was necessary...  

Undersides look much better 

Vertical fin needs adjustment too. A sliver of 0,4 mm plastic card added to match the dorsal cover. 

 

The sculpting work is done. Primed for NMF 

Shiny! 

Shiny! I am going to use AK Super Gloss Ceramic Varnish to protect it. 

Something went wrong 😭... The varnish is advertised as the best for metallic finishes, with outstanding levelling qualities, to be applied with a brush. It is quite thick and smells like a varnish for wood floor. The Xtreme metal paint cured for more than 48 hours... All the paint needs to be removed...
