I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Pilot figure starting to look better. I built up some areas with wet bathroom tissue (of all things!) soaked with thin CA. Chute straps are strips of printer paper applied wet. Still experimenting but seems to be sandable and shapeable. Lots of scratchfiller/primer to come. Some soft fine gauge solder (Radio Shack) for the buckles and harness details.

Looking very good. I've never attempted a pilot figure, they always look very difficult to do...

Thanks jgood (James, right?) I've got a long way to go with this guy. I'm almost tempted to simply get a toy figure from Wal-Mart and modify it to save labour (ala John) !!! Of course, I'll have to remember to build the plane around him!!lol
