With the AGM-65's how did you get the join between the main part and back part of the missile parallel and perfectly lined up?

Hi Gidge, with a lot of trial and error, I found it hard to cut off the excess resin perfectly, but a good tip I got was to use a grinder (I used my dremel at slow speed) and going the two ends so that they are concave and then they will go together nicely

Did you paint them before or after joining them?

Afterwards, it took a bit of trial and error to get them right!
