I agree with Sissel it's very impressive.

She looks smoken Jeff.

Modelmaster paints are cool, I just received an example of a new brand of railroad paint my distributor represents, want to try it soon.

They spray and brush nicely. The only down side is the drying time.

Wonderful paint job Jeff. Can't wait to see it completed.

The decaling is done. I combined the Airfix sheet with the ExtraDecal sheet. Both performed well. A coat of future sealed them all down with no silvering.

The ExtraDecal sheet includes a supplement sheet of crosses and swaskitas. Enough to do six additional aircraft so this will be a welcome addition to the spares tote. And that white chevron that I thought would disappear int the white paint on the nose? Well it did not.

Later today I will carefully remove the masking and see what kind of mess I wil have to clean up. Add some antenna wires and touch up the position lights and other details.

I have no complains about this kit at all. Any issues were created by me the builder. Bravo Airfix.

Great work on the paint and decals. I look forward to seeing it with the canopy masks off.

Time to call this one finished.

So the masking came off without a hitch and the only touch up was along the base of the clear piece were you see a white line from light passing through the glass.

Recent Airfix releases do not include a few detail parts no doubt to save dollars on mould cutting and what not. I felt that the "towel rack" antennas on the tail was needed. Stretched sprue for that. I really need to clean up the edges.

So there it is and all I can say is roll on Airfix.

Lovely Jeff, I must say the white makes it look like its got a big hooter.

Cheers
