Spent about an hour sanding down the putty, getting rid rid scratches, and looking up Blue Prints for seam and rivet lines. Then added a touch more putty for filling a couple low spots.

I know what you're going through with re-filling and sanding low spots. I keep finding them on my A-400 as well. Still, you're doing a bang up job man! Keep it coming!

Yeh buddy. Spent the rest of the day filling the wrong armament mount hole with sprue and razor saw cutting the only set of pillons, which came with $50 worth of bombs. Who knew?? This kit and my ideas are getting pretty expensive ....... again.

The sprues will be used for armament wing pylons.
