My final build report now.

The cowling, propeller, fuel tank, mast and pitot tube were glued in place. I applied a little weathering but I still need to apply a coat of varnish not just on the exterior but inside the cockpit, so I haven't fitted the canopy yet:

Varnish has been applied and I can now say that this build is finished:

Once again, my thanks to Andy @The Smythe Meister for suggesting this GB.

My pleasure Dave,and thank you for joining in:thumb2:
That's one excellent looking Zero for sure,a cracking build to have followed :cool:,
A big nod to you for the tip of masking the inside of the canopy to aid painting..... I'm another who's stashed that little nugget away!;)
