Beautifully done so far Colin, great detail and nice paint work.

Thanks guys, just popping it all together now and giving it a couple of coats of paint then I'll be onto the details that need adding. Should have something to show tomorrow.

Thanks Francesco

Got most of the extra detailed parts sorted, made a camo net and rolled some tent canvass, got the tent poles painted

The hulls all painted ready for some subtle weathering before the extras get attached, added a few decals and got the hatches in place.

just a few piccies to show progress (as little as it is)

I don't know, some folks expect everything nowadays! Not only are you providing the entertainment, now you got to do the catering as well!

Thanks for the positives guys
