Just a little update tonight.  I laid the gloss coat down and will probably get to the decals and the start of weathering on Friday evening.

 

I also finished painting and installing the Anyz canopy rail.  What a neat detail!

Install?  No.  Just a dab of super glue to have it stick to the canopy.  Assembly is a little fiddly because the parts are absolutely tiny.  So, fine tweezers, a light touch, and the smallest amount of super glue are the tricks.

I'm thinking it will add a lot for my Birdgage. At a minimum it certainly amplifies the claustrophobic effect you could get from flying one of these early ones.
