I've been dreading soldering the railings and cockpit handholds...soldering isn't my thing but I think they came out well. I also made a strut to support the rear hatch open. The rear hatch is easily removable, just pop out the hinge pins and the hatch comes off along with the strut.
I'm gonna try diy plating for the rails and handholds. If it looks like crap there's always silver paint! (but that a winter project)

Next are the seats...

First rate work!

Handrails are not the first thing I think of when I hear soldering. Looks awesome

Nice work indeed.
I need to get back to scratch building some more scale models. But this "speed" thing has taken over for the last few years.
