Tracks are never perfect, so don't worry about that.

Cheers Ian :grin:

Hi all,
Finished...with time to spare ;-) I gave the tracks a wash and then dry brushed with Oily Steel, for the mud Tamiya Flat Brown was sprayed and then Mig pigments and Tamiya weathering sets were used:

If I did not know I would say it 1/35. Terrific work.

That's a great piece of work. When are you adding the wings?

A super first Blitz, Chris. Well done, mate!

Thanks everyone, I really enjoyed the build. My wife thought it was strange to build a model in 24 hours, but at least it is another one out of my stash ;-)
