The canopy is masked - well done, it's a very small fiddly canopy on this model.
Don't worry Boys, plenty of 'Fiji Bitter'was consumed. I'm an Aussie - you thought I didn't drink beer ????

Happy Australia Day BTW.

That's a relief, I don't have to be diplomatic about girlie pina coladas now :-D

To me that is the "classic" 109 and probably the paint scheme I like the most

IMHO that is one of the colour and marking schemes for a '109E, nicely done Simon. Are you making your own stand for this one then? and to second the boss, are you going to use a prop blur? questions, questions.....
