A quick update to share  ;D

been bringing all the smaller subassemblies together on the model, i added the central drop tank. This caused me a spot of bother during the painting process, few mishaps resulting with me having sand and repaint the tank a few times

but much to my relief i got a nice smooth coat the third time around
