Very nice.  That captures the shape of the nose gun quite well.  Now I just

I don't have any of those helicopter windscreens in trans-light-blue, which is
the color I'm planning to use for all the windows of this beast.  Perhaps i can

clear as well, since I think the real thing has glass on the sides.

I've pretty much worked out how to do the dorsal guns now, but I need to obtain
two 4x4x2 domes in trans-light-blue.
