Evening All,

Thanks for the kind comments, they are very welcome.

I keep finding things to finish, odd little jobs and one that I have been putting off is the area above the fuel tank. All the electrics are attached to the hull in this area and I was unsure how to finish it, the easy way, with just a sheet of steel covering it or the more difficult option to copy the original. In the end I chose the latter. I made a very simple press tool to form the slots that the 20cm magazines would have sat in and then fabricated the rest around them.

Once fitted they cover the electrics, are easy to remove and replicate the original.

I hope.
