It is time to finally close the box, so the whole upper part is installed, glued and screwed to the bottom part.
The back requires a bit more attention (cyano glue and putty) to prevent light leakage.

Last adjustments before painting:
- Realization of covers of the light rods (otherwise too bright)
- side connectors covers (tubes and tank wheels)

- the canons of turbolaser turrets are awfull as is and are replaced by a simple brass rods

- Obviously, it was just cured when I realize I forgot fiber on a belly outgrowth ! Too bad, the holes are filled with plastic putty. Grrr!
