Ok, my fellow forumites, time for another little update.
The cockpit area, being pretty well finished, is ready to be tucked into the fuselage.
First a quick look at the Master Spandau, which really look the part, I think.
Ok, now I'll start with this one, which shows the markings I have chosen.
After everything was cemented into place, I thought it, was going swimmingly until I noticed that the port Spandau is off kilter, being forced to the left by the engine. I don't know how to rectify this other than
trying to force it to the right and attempting to CA it more in the proper line. The next couple of photos
show this better.
Here's the nose area. I have removed the engine cover but I'm not sure if it's a good idea seeing the
engine is not detailed other than a little MIG greasy/oily wash. I don't know what can be done to jazz
it up a bit, or whether it needs very much at all. I could use some advice on this one...should I even bother
to leave the covers off?

I'll finish this one up at the tail. I have added the control cables with GasPatch turnbuckles and 0.5mm
brass tubing with 2 lb. test monofilament line.
That's about it for today. Thanks for stopping by!
Cheers,
Ernie
