A bit of Glue'n'Glaze on the canopy frame.
The door is now on too. I had to tweak the arms on the figure to get them into place.

Matt varnish to tone down the glossiness of the decals.
I will spray a coat of satin on later.

There's a seated pilot figure in there, but he is pretty much invisible, so I had to add the shirt-sleeved ground crew figure toosplash wrote:Well done it looks brillient, I love the addition of the pilot, he makes the sene complete.

Re: The Bee Gee Gee Bee Racer
Very smart, the ground crew figure is a nice touch and will draw your attention to the pilot figure.

Re: The Bee Gee Gee Bee Racer *The Feelin's Gone*
Looks very good -- the red & white are not the most friendly colors, not to mention all the curv-y/scallop-y lines on a round airplane.
The addition of the pilot (somewhere) and mechanic make a nice scene.
Well Done !!

I echo Johns comment, that my look small but there are a whole load of potential trip-ups for the unwary.
You've composed that beautifully, an evocative little vignette.
