Blacked out the windows with strips of a black plastic file folder.....heck of a lot cheaper than sheet styrene. 🙂

The paper towel is to give the clamps something to hold on to....they slipped right off the smooth, rounded wings.

A lot of filling and sanding to do yet......

$15.00 on Kijiji....how could I refuse? Original issue....only the shuttle body halves glued together....looks complete....decal sheet curled up...probably going to disintegrate when they hit water...but...that's why scanners and decal paper were invented... 🙂

There are several nice aftermarket sheets for this. I've got this boxing in the stash and two sheets by Warbird Decals for the Shuttle, along with Draw Decals sheet for the 747. :-D
