Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Thanks folks.

Phill - IIRC used rattle cans of car paint.  Silver, and then white.

Here it is with wings wedged in place.  Ailerons scribed in outboard of the nacelles, flaperons inboard.  Would a 'dyne need flaps?  Only if it ever made conventional take offs or landings.  So lets call them flaperons as the ailerons are fairly small.
Note that straight OOB the kit has no control surfaces on the wings except a trim tab on the port wing.

PSR progresses on the wings and tails.
I've sanded off most of the raised detail (goodbye lovely rivets - sob :unsure: ) and am trying to blend the nacelles into the wings to my satisfaction.  The flying surfaces are going to be NMF so it needs to be smoooooooooooth.
Following the lesson learnt from the Battle i've glued the movable tail control surfaces in place and filled the massive gaps with putty before scribing new, thinner lines.
