Nasty white plastic that is hard to photograph.

ESCI doesn't provide enough rails for the intended load
![Album image #3 Album image #3](/albums/img/3/5/7/110357-10977-14-720.jpg)
Bonus, 10 Snakeye's for the spare box.

The decals look ok after all these years

Starting with the wingtanks
![Album image #6 Album image #6](/albums/img/3/6/0/110360-10977-44-720.jpg)
Now this is shallow, 5mm won't do for the air intake.

Plastic card to the rescue.

Birdshot n' white glue.

More birdshot
![Album image #14 Album image #14](/albums/img/3/7/2/110372-10977-43-720.jpg)
The bangseat looked a bit dull so I added some Tamiya tape n' lead wire.

Putty time...
![Album image #20 Album image #20](/albums/img/3/7/8/110378-10977-99-720.jpg)
After some vigourus work with a round file. It looks better than the original 5mm intake depth.
![Album image #21 Album image #21](/albums/img/7/9/4/110794-10977-28-720.jpg)
A SLUF isn't complete without things that go BOOM!

Thanks mate! It's halted temporary as a Jug came in the way for my interest all of a sudden but the build will continue soon.
