A bit more sanding and putty is required, but its taking shape.

A bear makes a vacation and returns with COVID. Great :(

So only a slow start building again, lets close the original jet exhaust.

Almost done with closing of the original air intakes.

Make a quick&dirty printed mock-up model to see if the planned camo will work. Better to test it here than on the real model.

The original air intakes have to be closed. A 3D printed part, putty and a lot of sanding is required.

After the initial test, both engines could be printed and tested to add them to the hull.
Seems to work.

First testprint of an engine. Taken from an generic business jet 3d model. Looks ok so far, so lets continue with this.

Testing if all parts of the Type 85 Mōko fit together after adding the weight. And add some hard points to place some payload to the aircraft.
