Nice recovery Danny!

Your Phantom is looking sharp Danny. I better pull my finger out and get mine into a coat of paint.

Loads of time yet. Mines stopped awaiting more goodies. Funny thing is, I can't remember what I'm waiting for!

Nice catch Danny.

Been a really busy week as my wedding season has now officially started... I managed to make a start to the decals yesterday and they seem to go on well. Its a Bl**dy big job time wise though, so Im doing it a wee bit at a time. Apologies for the pic quality as it was a small point and shoot that i used, my own cameras are in situ at a hotel ready for tomorrow..

[Guest]

No Ole...I was going to use a hairy stick, but decided to use the airbrush instead...I told my brain to imagine it was a hairy stick and just started freehand airbrushing, no bluetac, plasticene, paper masks, anything.

...again as I said above...if I can do it again I will be a happy man

A Phantom with paint on. Looks nice Danny. I've done the odd build before were there's so many decals, tiny little ones, I might of errrmm missed a few out !

[Guest]

Colin, its going to take longer to decal it than it did to build and paint it !!...200 or more decals small enough to stick to your finger and lose there..

Progress report...Top surfaces decaled and a first coat of matt layed down with just a hint of grey in the varnish to give the impression of the weatherd colour that Ive noted on Phantom pics in the field. Also, Payload added and under surfaces painted. Next and last steps are weathering and flat coat to the bottom, canopy refitted and a climbing in pilot to add.....Lastly a general touch up of some surfaces and small parts. Oh and 20000 decals on the bottom !
