I’ve taped the warped parts of my 1/144 Hurc so I hope annealing works!  Looking forward to seeing what you can do with this buddy

Many thanks Boots, Pete, Tommy, Steve and, Guy. Steve, I hope that helps straighten your Hurc up. Be careful using any heat. I once made an Italeri Hawk to rest on the top of my dashboard. When I left work on a hot day, I found the wings had melted in the sun.  I've added the rest of the lugs, dry fitted the bulkhead and cargo deck. The fuel tank halves have been glued together, also the wheels. The seats and control column are ready for a coat of primer. I shall carry on assembling as many parts as possible before I start painting anything.

Thank you Paul, Guy and, Marco. Dropped a bit of a clanger. I checked the bulkhead positions and other bits, but didn't notice the end sections on the overhead panel. I've had to remove some of the lugs to allow it to fit. It also looks like it glues to the fuselage as well. Oh hum, that's muppetry on my part.

Cheers Paul, Robbo and Boots. I cut out the offending bits that I added, and it's just fine now. I'd like to point out, this was down to me not checking properly beforehand, nothing to do with the model. The kit itself is going together really well, despite my attempts to screw it up.
