That is looking great Vaughan.

I may have missed this, but this release of the kit did not include the bombs that went on inner wing pylons. Will you be getting AM for this as MDC do some good ones?

I have spent the last few days Klear coating and laying down the decals which there are great number of. I gave up trying to used the supplied decals for the no step areas as it was impossible to slide them off the decal sheet in a straight line and then position them. So I opted to mask them instead which was a fiddle but worth it.

The end result looks great, though I think it’d have been easier to reverse-mask these bits had you known about the decal problem in advance. That is, paint the area red, mask off the stripes, and then paint the rest of the plane. Of course, this is hindsight, but it may be useful for anyone else building this kit.

Hi Vaughan
Great job with that masking. A very neat result.

Just a question the Revell colour call out for the pitot tube is Fiery Red has anyone have an idea on this one?

Barry I'm sticking with this version with no extras added.

Vaughan,
That is a great looking build. The masking shows great skill and patience.
