Not a lot more done to this I've been decorating at home, but got the canopy masked and fitted also the tail plane on, so apart from the wing tanks it's ready for priming, I will fit them at the end.

This is really coming on nicely Ian. Great looking aircraft and the metalic finish sets it of very well.

Looking real good.

You're getting a really good BMF there Ian - is that Alclad or the new Vallejo metallics?

It's the new Vallejo Patrick, I really like them hardly any smell in fact they smell quite nice and once dry very very tough
