Initially I just taped the four fuselage parts together to see how big it was and if everything fit together at least close to properly.

Fuselage done and painted, just need to get the engines and landing gear on as well as the canopies.

Pre-decalling. The decals are not numbered and require some pre-fitting to figure out where they go for the red warning stripes.

That decal on the nose is actually manually constructed as the original came off during decalling and I couldn't find it.

The decal for the in-air refuelling system was closed up in the center, saw it before soaking so I just cut out the center.
