Very well constructed model. Attention to detail on paint job as well. Well done. I instructed in the T-2; this looks like a fantastic model. How was cutting the vacuform canopy? I've never worked with one.

Thank you for your comments!! Paul, the best way to cut a vacu-formed canopy is to fill it with modelling clay and put it into the freezer. Once hardened, use a very sharp blade to trim it.
