Thanks for the comments. The radiator was treated to a bit of filler and a rub down, after which I was able to finish the painting, although the mid stone and azure blue did need three coats.

Klear and decals next then its just a few bits and bobs to add to finish it off. :)

Decals and wheels are on. I used the stencils from the Revell sheet along with the Techmod national markings.

I should have it finished tomorrow.

Great job Tim! :grin:

Nice scheme and a wonderful result!

Still waiting for the decals for mine... :sad: May have to resort to the kit decals circa 1963 after all...

After fitting the canopy and pitot I gave it a coat of matt varnish to finish it off.

A nice kit and the Turkish markings make it stand out from the crowd.

Nice to get a GB finished in time too after last years non finishes. :oops:

Lovely build, Tim!
I agree, the Turkish markings stand out. I really enjoy seeing 'unusual' air forces being portrayed.
