The plating for the top of the ship is now complete.
Not much to write about as it was just a case of cutting, sanding and gluing into place (repeated over and over!)
I'm happy to report that it all fitted, matching my templates and the CAD/photomatched model.
I have glued the clamps to the armature plugs and attached the "Evergreen" sheeting to the top of the engines - as per the original.
I've included the obligatory Coke can for scale in the last shot and a pic of the original model for comparison.
I'll move onto the plating the underside next...
