Yes, even original part can be used, just sand frames on canopy and polishing. But problem is that I did not note that in time, it have a coat of paint now. Also, under this invisible area is placed resin frame and super glue definitely make scars there, hard to repair.

Okay.

Even though you have this problem it coaxed me to study the Wyvern some more to figure out the canopy differences that I never noticed before. Learning never stops!

Wyvern progress few bits and then stop! I realize that kit does not have scoop under the windscreen. So I have to make it somehow from something. So, dig into spare box is what I will do next hours
