Decided to make this an in-flight Subject. The gear wells with the kit are quite awful. More .005 strips to fill large gaps on the gear doors

Yes, I'm strongly leaning towards a "What-If"

Decided to do this Bird with the wheels up. The gear wells would have required major surgery to look better. Slowly getting this in the right direction, working on Ordnance, got Pilot figure in the works as well.

Well done so far.
Does have any solution inside the air intake?

Thanks for the comments, haven't been working at the Bench for the past month, other 1:1 scale projects around the house have been taking up my spare time. Hopefully this coming week.

The intakes are fixed in a similar fashion to the 1/72 ESCI F-16 build.
