Today we routed out the area on each wing for the gun blisters. These are the preformed guns for this model provided with the model. I had created the gun barrels some years ago but never installed them. So, I decided to use the plastic gun pieces that came with the plane, and after I have them glued in place, then I will drill them out at an appropriate size to take a more scaled gun barrel.









Added a little micro-balloons mixed with polyester resin around the gun blisters. Will wait until tomorrow to sand down smooth and may add some fiberglass for strength.
