Got 99% of the glue work sorted, just a few bits to add add the end. You know, those little bits that always get knocked of if you put them on to early.

I got the canopy masked off together with the camera ports and the ID lamps and wing tips lights.

A collection of 'bits' mounted for spraying.

The Next day, today, the Model was transformed from a very pale blue of the bare plastic, to a grey pale grey of the primer.

Along with the 'bits'.
I might get to the paint tomorrow! Yeah.
 
Looking good Ian, it’s going to look like a proper beast when it’s finished 😀

That's coming on nicely Ian!!

As for those extra bits that have to go on, I'm always surprised by just how many there are when you break them down into their constituent parts.

Keep up the good work.

I always find that with 1/48 you need to prime all the little bits, but with 1/72 I do sometimes just go straight to the main colour. Especially those parts that are hidden away afterwards.

This is all looking spot-on and I’m glad someone did the Seafire as well.
