I'll be making adjustments during that build. The first full models will go to Poppy and Ted, or FrwyFlyr, who has been a tremendous help as you'll see in upcoming photos. |

It only works in 2-D. The colors are only used to help me keep track of the various sections: wings, fuselage, cockpit, etc. I think on my next kit, I'll try a 3-D program. That may help with some of the figuring and head scratching I went through this time. |
