Its such a great looking kit and well thought out.

Really like you mini light sabre - that has gone together so well.

Hope it all continues well for you.
Happy Modelling

Here it is, the dome Drool I am well impressed with this.

We add 1 of the blue panels to the dome.

I also tried it on the frame, just to check that everything lined up BigGrin
