Thank you guys! The canopy was vac-formed using the kit canopy as a master (after some adjustments). That canopy is the reason why this model was left in the "shelf of shame" for so long.
I only scratch built some details on the main gear wells, trying to match the level of detail you could see on the outside of the cockpit tub. you can check some photos of these on the other album related to this project.
Cheers
