Got a bit more done. I probably should've spent more time on the cockpit, but I know how much work is coming for the fuselage, so I sort of chickened out. Once the windscreen is in place it'll be hard to see inside since these racers have such small cockpit openings... right?
Anyway, I decided to paint the cockpit green... it's pretty rough, but good enough I think. I also scratched up the second (counter) prop using something similar (leftover from my Ki-10 Perry) and a few bits of polystyrene tubing.

After I was able to glue the fuselage and the wings together, there were a few bits and pieces that needed to be added to the cockpit from outside. I left the engine hatch unglued for the moment as the props still need a bit of fiddling into place.

Counter props stuck on temporarily with blue tack. I just put it on top of the floats for imaginary purposes.
