YA-7F (version 2)
This is a preliminary update for the aft fuselage based on version 1. Final shape will depend on the shape of the Hasegawa kit, which should arrive soon. I made the shroud a little larger diameter, made the upper profile more flat, re-did the flare/chaff blisters, and added the thin strengthening straps along the sides.
This was done with the AC3D CAD app. I've been experimenting with FreeCAD over the past year, and I'll try using it to make the new fuselage. After I save the fuselage to a mesh I'll import it into AC3D and add the other parts. That's the plan anyway.

My Hasegawa kit has arrived, and the intake (on the right) looks correct.
Most of the lengthening of the fuselage is in the plug ahead of the wing. The rear fuselage is only slightly longer.
