As I'm waiting on some modelling supplies to arrive so I can progress, I've now done a little more work on the standard Eagle. The passenger pod on this generally fits amazingly, but the best way to build it is to NOT add the floor to begin with. Build up the walls and add the roof sides. The roof centre isn't supported for some reason, so here you see the styrene girders I added from within. These will allow the roof centre to sit perfectly flat and supported. My plan is to paint and decal the pod and floor separately, and then paint the clear solar panels black on the reverse...then to fit them into their positions from within, then fit the floor. No awkward masking this way.
