Estes Puma #7256 Build, Part 14, Engine Pod Gluing and Decals



You can still see the top of the tabs going into the top of the engine pods.



You can camouflage it a little bit with a fillet of white glue. Mentioned earlier, use white glue for an external fillet over the paint. White glue dries clear, yellow glue would dry yellow.



The clear glue fillet blurs the joint a bit. Not perfect but better than it was.







The gun dowel ends are hit with a permanent marker to give them a black end.






This is the best fit I could find for the canopy window decals. They don't match the face card decals.
Because of the curved surface the decal was coaxed around the nose cone with a wet Q-tip.

Is it just me or does it look like an angry duck?
