Cheers, all sorted now. But I am wondering if this is one of Eduard's slightly o!der kits. The surface detail is great, just the fit is a bit iffy in places.

Right, six years, isn’t really that old then.
It’s been a while, but I’ve managed to do a bit more. It looks Tempest ish now.
A few other bits and pieces have been sprayed ready for fitting. Now I just need a bit of camouflage.

Just found this build, sorry, hangs head in shame.
I do like the 'fettling' in post 7 with the. cockpit frame. Fine work.
Always liked the look of the Tempest.

Colin looking good
Thank you all for hanging on in there with me. I’m not actually sure if the GB has come to an end, but I am plodding on.
This is why I don’t often build much in the summer months, normal life is too busy.
I’ve done a bit more.
D-day markings are all sprayed up. It wasn’t much fun masking a straight line around a tapering fuselage.
Ocean grey done and masked up for Dark green.
And then, fresh out of the spray booth,
I was really surprised to see the stripes had behaved themselves and ended up nice and straight.

That is a wonderful bit of painting!
Thank you all for stopping by. Good news, it's done, finished, completed.
Really impressed how you did those stripes very nice.
