Overall a nice kit with decent fit apart from the front canopy that really did not fit at all, being corrected with filler.

I would advise leaving out most of the internal trunking as it won’t be seen and it contributes nothing to the build.

For reasons I will explain in another thread this will be my last build for a little while. I have some exciting news to announce…..

Now that's how you finish a thunderbolt,

most excellent work Barry.... a total stunner
 
Fantastic looking jug barry , a real beast of an aircraft . Love the scheme with the white tail and wing leading edges , adds interest to the o/d neutral grey , the modulation on the olive drab is perfect too , brings the solid colour to life , cheers tony

Looking at the pictures I realised I had not removed the masking from the underwing lights. So here are new pics.

Cracker is that Barry. They are really purposeful thugs and you’ve captured that impression well.

That really has turned out very well indeed. Another top build.

Well done.
