Great finish -- paints and declas. Can you talk a bit about what you used, etc ...

Thanks for the comments guys.

I finally got the catapult sprayed today, just needs a bit of weathering and it's done (piccies soon).

I like to use the Revell Aqua Colour paints as they cover well and are easy to clean up. I used silver (90) for the fuselage, and Light Grey (76) for the skids. The catapult has been done in Grey (57) with a bit of Anthracite (09) added to give it a more industrial feel.

The markings are the ones issued with the kit. As there is little reference material for this it was the best I could do.

Very nice model. The catapult sets it off (groan) well. ;-)
