Simon,
some really nice scratchery going on mate, a great improvement over the kit offerings.

Ok slightly longer than a weekend ( i did other stuff) but stripped of the decals and pin stripes and masked them up, 
so a couple of mistakes on my part, i did the boarder line first and I can see a shadow underneath the number panel, nose is slightly mis-shaped but I might live with it if i can’t trim it up, so all thats needed now is the black pin strip looking forward to this NOT, but i did print another set of decals not very well but the line might just do I‘ll check it over the next day or 2, then i hope to cut it all back and clear coat it job done!!!
also while i was chilling out last weekend i made some new shelf‘s 4 to-be exact but can only use 3 as the shack don’t fit on the new ones …. I‘ll find a use for it
catch up soon
