Well I am calling this one done as one of the tail decals has just gone south. :evil:

It will get a dull coat tomorrow as it seems a bit shinny & I am lacking a serial number but it's about there.

I will try to get some better images up tomorrow when the light is better.

So another completed Blitz. Thanks for watching and all the kind words. :-D

I think 17 hours 20 minutes in total but only 10 or so hours building time, the rest was spent doing life stuff & drinking. So not a bad day overall. :-D

I will have to scour the spares box for a replacement tricolour or paint it on if need be.

Nice one O-T. Missed the ending but can see all went well.
