This will be my subject for the GB, it looks red now but it will be more Scarlet when I have finished.

I like the sound of this, Spalsh. Is Martin close to the mark with Captain Scarlet?

I'm a mostly full-time modeller put a part-time poster....

He is indeed, I'm going for a Spectrum white Angel Intercepter.

And here I was thinking it'd be Scarlet Johansson...

Well that didn't take long, did it? And it looks pretty cool, too!

It's not quite finished I think it needs some over the top weathering like you see in all the 21st century models. I'm going to try adding panel lines using pencil and then adding lots of dust streaks.

Speedy Gonzales! Looks ace!

Are you going to leave the nose wheel white to match scheme of Interceptor?
