I am still working on the ventral antennae farm on this. I scratch built the smaller blade antennae posts out of sheet stock and reinstalled this on the centerline. I then added the kit antennae posts that are off center. Those are the dark grey pieces. Each of these will then get a circular kit part glued to the top so they look like mushrooms.

OK, let's try the photos again! I got the ventral antennae farm totally done. I added the domes to all the antennae stems and installed another blade antennae as well. I then put the plane back in the Lego jig and started on the antennae farm on the dorsal area. I added five blades made from sheet stock and glued them to the bases I had installed on the spine. I then added the mushroom tops from the kit, to the stems. I still have to add a few more blade antennae.
