With a dry fit of the assemblies you can finally see how the model will look.
The antenna panels were rounded before gluing onto the body tube.
Two panels go on opposite sides centered between two fins.
The quarter round antennas were glued about 1/4" from the sides of the panel plates.
The model got a shot of gloss white on all the detail pieces.
A dowel painting wand was inserted in the engine mount.
Around that, a rolled up paper towel was pressed in the recess.
This keeps the paint out of the rear of the model.
Looking very nice!
