having to resort to masking tape to staunch the bleeding.
Yes, that explains all: the modeller superhero did survive when all the other superheroes of the Universe died... :bow:

I'm no superhero mate.  Unless... have you seen the movie mystery men...?

I have not seen this film, but Wikipedia tells me: "a team of lesser superheroes with unimpressive powers"... :unsure:
Yes, maybe being injured is not a proof of high powers but when I was young all injured (and dead) soldiers of 1914-18 were classified "official heroes"... ;)
We will see the model, more advanced, to judge/confirm maybe your actual powers ;)

Well it advanced slightly today.  I glued some more plastic onto the wings to patch where they originally had engines.

Slapped some Tamiya Stinky Yellow onto the tail joint area yesterday.  I'll give it another day to cure fully before I sand it.
Also sanded one wing and attached a nacelle to it.  Cut the other nacelle ready to attach but I need to finish patching the hole where the original engines were first.

Sanding has been carried out.  More will be needed after putty.

Here is a mock up.

Victorian built turbo props.  To be named when I read my previous back stories to remind myself of the naming conventions of PDRV engines.
Mounted above the wings so as to be better protected from ground fire.

More work on the cockpit today.  Added some sides to the tub and fettled a seat and pilot to fit.

First primer on the fuselage.  This will enable me to see where to apply putty.
The Revell parts have more sink holes than <insert name of place with lots of sinkholes here>.  It was a recent repop so I guess they didn't bother to refresh the moulds before re-releasing it.

Big step.  Glued the wings on.
