Thanks, I think I'll chalk that up to pics this time around since they are pretty shiny due to a total failure of my flat varnish and the subsequent lack of patience to hand brush matte on models this large.
The client had already assembled these guys with the wings like that. They are indeed separate parts. It's been a while since I assembled one but I remember the parts being this:
Hull
canards (2x)
main wing (2x)
secondary wing (2x)
tail vertical
tail horizontal top
engine exhaust nozzles (3x)
landing skids (3x)
underwing HB (2x)
nose HB mounts (2x)
Main cannon
nose antenna
It's an obscene number of bits for the model.
