I used the Wolfpack resin detail set (kit
48081) for my build. The kit is actually made for the Monogram model but
works perfectly for the Kinetic kit also.
The kit inclused all of the antennas,
ALQ-99 and also a new pod for the tail
of the aircraft. I did not use the Wolfpack pod for the tail of the Prowler. I
felt the kit part was more detailed and
more accurate than the aftermarket
part I could have used.
Once you have all of the added detail on the fuselage you can begin to
attach the wings. Once the wings are
attached and firmly in place you will
notice a gap down the whole plane on
both sides. Both of the gaps can easily
be corrected with either putty or sheet
styrene.
As, you can see in the bottom photo I
decided to go the sheet styrene route
once again. Filling in the gap with
small strips until it is a little above the
wing line. After this process you can
begin to sand down the styrene carefully until you have a level surface. If
you have pits or small depressions you
can again either putty in these spots or
add styrene as needed.
