Hi Robby, I fitted my panels so they rested ever so slightly on the side of the hull.... notice on yours you have added a small extension that shouldn't have been necessary but providing it is sanded down shouldn't be noticeable when painted..... I also had to resort to some strategic clamping to keep the panels in place until set.... a fiddly process.. Mr T's official diary probably shows the fitting of these prow panels better than anything else I've seen on other diaries. This is a link to the stage on his official diary..... hope it helps... http://forum.model-space...aspx?g=posts&t=7031
Think you are doing a great job so keep posting... Regards Alan
