Very imaginative job,Are you going to dress the welds flush?. Just needs a little model of Chunko dangling below the " Hang glider " flue cover.

I don't know what dressing the welds flush means?
But leaving welds on show an honestly they are bad for a perpose as you know elephants have creases but this was my take on a back to front crease

Why do they paint their toenails yellow,
So they can't be seen in a bowl of custard!......... I'll get my coat.
