That are some wild seams to clean up 😅

@Papa Rat

Actually not that bad in the way of seems. Halves split horizontally, the most seem work was with the sides of the nose. The wings closed up pretty good. With the 'pontoons' over the wings, they were pretty gappy in real life, esp near the rear, and I won't be doing any sanding, but just using a wet q-tip to hydrate and wipe off excess.

All in all, the fit is alright. The one spot that I would work on more before the wings went together would be the wing fences. But I am liking this one.

I think Electric Indigo mentioned seams. I was thinking about the larger gaps by the wing area. Anyway, thanks for the info. 👍

Where the leading edge of the wing meets up with the closer 'pontoon,' which is actually extra fuel and anionic housing? There is a hole there, but that is for a part that has not been added yet.

Yeah… Hahaha. I see, that makes way more sense.
