My plan was to tape the hull halves together, drop in the hull reinforcements then carefully glue from inside the hull,then drop in part A-14 into the bottom of the stern.What glue do you guys reccomend for the hull assembly? seems like thin AC would just run out the other side of the seam and leave a mess? That small recessed part (A-14) does not seem to fit very well, that may take some effort.Thanks for your advice,I have yet to complete any ship model yet, this scale really appeals to me, I am stoked to get this one done
