I hope to add vision port interior detail. How functional they will be is not yet decided.

First I need to replace the view port covers. Kit covers are for the bin.

Next I will make the vision block holders and clear resin inserts.

Finished the rear mudguards. Added spring mechanisms. Made my own springs from steel wire. They work nicely now.

Added C hook holder. I used the kit C hooks but reshaped slightly.
