Just got out of bed, everything is fully painted, all it needs is some of the sub-assemblies to be attached and then the decals. Lets hope its not a tail-sitter.

Cheers,
Paul

Thanks Ian, the kit is relatively simple but it is showing it's age and would badly need to be retooled. The paints were fine, I always use Humbrol Acrylics.
