Not much of it. 🙂

Looking good.

Good point. For this, I basically just scratched up a better exhaust using a bit of bent wire painted to match. Got a few more little bits to add, like a headlight, before she's done done.

Heh, made a stand so she doesn't fall over... and even made a tiny bit of a wheelie, like in the pic (mainly because the stand was a bit too small). I'm very happy with how the stretched clear sprue headlight worked... so all that's left is the license plate. I think I'll do that as a decal... there's no way I'm painting "2207" that small!

As if the decal of the license plate was much easier than painting. It was so small and fiddly that one of us almost didn't make it out of this build alive. 🙂

Thanks Spanjaard. I was thinking of your F-4 build when I was struggling with one tiny decal...😉
