Some work on the flanges that's on the spine.
I tried to find some "T" plastic strip from Plastruct and Evergreen that would fit this area, but neither companies make anything small enough. I purchased some Plastruct ABS TEE 90081 for the edges of the spine though and it looks to be a good fit. For the flanges, I cut some .010" styrene into 3mm strips, scribed, and glued pieces to the spine.

I used some .010X.020 strips from Evergreen, cut four seperate pieces and glued them to the 3mm pieces

I continued the same technique for the back end

I'm really looking forward to detailing this area, and the front where I glued the Flak carriage to the neck
