Thanks Tony, I could use most of it, if I knew where it all goes, I’ve no instructions and can’t seem to find any on the net.

Off to a great start Ian. Nice work and paint too. The etch will also make it shine Sir!!! BTW, has Tamiya paid you your kickback for starting this GB yet??? Just wondering as their stocks shares went up on the stock exchange..........Have fun.....

Very nice Ian, but daunting seeing all this and some strange names being used .
I've even ordered a set of paints from the shop to keep Andrew happy :smiling3:

 

[Tim Marlow]

Looks like she’s going together well Ian. Any issues so far?

 

[Geoffers]

It looks like it’s coming along very nicely Ian.

None so far Tim, a true Tamiya kit. Some great detail, and cracking fit. The nacelles may need some filler though.

If it's Eduard you can find them on their shop site.

The seatbelts look a treat. Many thanks for them Pete.
Now onto the weathering before I button it all up.

 

[The Smythe Meister]

That's all looking great
I was actually going to comment on the seat belts in particular.... Then I read your last few lines !!
They do look smart though don't they!

 

[Jim R]

That looks very nice indeed Ian. Mosquito bomb bays varied slightly to accommodate different loads. Yours looks excellent, a little different to mine although it may just be due to the smaller scale.
I hope the fuselage halves fit around nicely.
Jim

 

[yak face]

Great looking pit Ian, seat belts really make a difference in any scale dont they . Cheers tony

 

[adt70hk]
