Cheers Nigel, Splash.
The basic colour scheme is now down, it just needs the odd touch in here and there before varnish and decals go on this afternoon.

Varnished-


-and decalled the codes will now need repainting white and then only final assembly remains to be done to complete the model.

Looking good. Great job painting the panther.

[Clashcityrocker]

Looks nice. Not a fan of the small wing roundels though. They don't look 'right'

This is looking great. I saw the bird painted this way the one time I went to Flying Legends, in 2000. Even though ersatz for a XIX it was such a great looking scheme.

Very well done !!!

[lancfan]

Thanks Tim, Nigel, August, John. This is the model at start of play, it should be complete today.

Looks good.

I wouldn't fancy painting that panther, though!

[lancfan]

I don't fancy making a habit of it. It took a shed load of varnish to level the surface of the fuselage side afterwards.

With the canopy, exhaust, propeller in place and a bone dome perched on the windscreen in typical BBMF manner and with the serials to be printed later I will call the model finished.

Nicely finished. Great idea with the helmet too.

Looks good. What's this kit like to build? I'm tempted to get one at some point.

Very sharp. Nice touch with the helmet
