Thanks splash, Shaun, Softscience, Chris, Saxon, Nigel, Despondman.
It is a very simple kit and just fell together.

That looks terrific. I'm currently waiting on an Italeri -G which I'm assured has all the bits for the -B which I want to build, I like the look of th B-57s & especially in the SEA scheme. Some Xtradecals will supply my markings.
