Nearly finished. Figures from box. Gluing clear parts was a little bit problematic for me. I didn't check how all 5 canopy parts fit and i was too fast. Glued middle part then side pieces - there was small gaps between them. I used AK Ultra Glue as a putty and filled them. Then i painted glue with black paint to cover it.

Fantastic work, I like the red “safety can” placed over the mingun barrels - for those who don’t know, if someone accidentally rotated the barrels of the M134 while it was loaded, the gun would fire, even if it was safed.  After a few fatalities amongs ground crew, those steel covers became mandatory. 
 

One constructive critique - it looks like you painted the noses of the 2.75”rockets blue.  Typically, only inert practice weapons were painted this color.

Thanks John!. That's interesting. I will stay with blue - it may indicate training rockets but it is eye-catching and provides a dissimilarity from base colors.
