Spent a couple hours putting this together. Kiddo doesn't want the stickers on it and didn't care if I finished the stand or not.

Workbench Wednesday.
I don't do these updates enough.
Bought a pair of Hobby Boss Bearcats at Oshkosh, 1/72 scale. I always build 72's as flying, so I spent a good amount of time gluing strips into the gear bay so that there is something to attach the gear doors to. These are pretty basic though, the wings and fuselage together are just two pieces.
