Tried pop can and balsa before settling on the cardstock. If yo put the green side in the paint covers more easily. Tin foil and toilet pape Do make good seat cushions. Used a strip of solder to stiffen the sides where there's a tube in the real thing.

Used balsa for engine block and the plastic cylinders from kit. Used a Testors clear flat spray and it looks much better. Washer is press fit onan aluminum tube to hold prop. Yes it spins.

Decided to make storage compartment door work. I'm not a fan of cardstock, so most peices were replaced with balsa.
