My old Airfix kit is the very first version with the same scheme as is offered now in the new kit - I might just have to dig it out and rob the decals from there!

Next, lightly sand down the raised area on the fuselage, just by the intake:
When the intake is slotted into place, this is what it looks like:
Not 100% accurate, and lacks the little spacer bar thingies, but looks pretty good for the scale, and its quite simple to do.
