If there are no stupid questions, then what kind of questions do stupid people ask? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions?

From where I'm sitting, your primer shows no obvious gaps or blemishes, so you're making fine progress.

Finally done! The aerial accidentally broke off in the airing cupboard and the brush marks on the camo paint are a bit obvious but otherwise I think it's pretty good. There is however an annoying bit of masking tape which seems to have got stuck in the canopy at some point, no idea how!

thank you for the supprt and i'm sure i'll be doing another Blitzbau next year,

Kate :grin:

Abbie and I both think it's great! Ironically when most of us were your age we all built our models within a day too, though not to anywhere near such a high standard. :grin:

BTW we still want to see your sugar craft Tea Cup!
