There wasn't anything to trim from the top of the "L'.s" The only flashing was going "in" - toward the neck, not up toward the head. I couldn't have altered the height of the L's. ....GoldCylon wrote:It looks to me like you might have trimmed a bit to much of the "L's" is why the chin plate is now too big. Just a guess but to hard to tell with out a true side by side.

I have some photos of the L's untrimmed. I'll get up some examples later today of what I'm speaking of, hard to type as good as photos

Maybe the "cap" need trimmed shorter? I cut it down to what I thought was right... maybe it was not enough.
Yes, there will be quite a bit of filler work, you are correct. I am finding it is more of a hand made craft item, than a mass produced model kit (like Mongram or Revell kits). It will take a lot of work to fill, prime, and then sand it all right so I can have chrome put on. BUT, it's worth itcblackthorne wrote:Hello,
As I have been building my backpack, it seems that there is alot of body filler work to be done to cover the gaps and overlaps.
Are you having the same experience?
How do you plan on attaching the pieces together? Glue? Pop rivets?

I plan to glue the parts, probably with some internal sheet plastic to span large gaps, and form a backing for filler.
