Canopy Work

The fuselage is now glued together and the rounded tail tip. Also have glued the fuselage and wing together. So progress is being made.

Now starting on the canopy for the TA-4J.  Compared the Monogram OA-4M canopy, the crystal clear and delicate canopy Hasegawa offers is awesome.  Masking off the clear areas in preparation for detailing and painting.

I would use the Missing Link vacu-form TA-4J canopy on the TA-4H except it has been in the bag for so long there is now a long white streak along one of the curves.  So have to make do with the OA-4M canopy.  So I have to reshape the back of the OA-4M canopy to fit the Missing Link resin TA-4J fairing.
