Glad you like the Javelin Stuart, O_T, feanor, parts of it are quietly turning red and pictures will follow later this evening.

Ayup David...

I'm Looking forward to seeing it. I've just masked my Warspite for its main Hull grey, but am wondering if its too late to fire up the compressor now because of work in the morning... Was it you who made some Airfield buildings a coupla years ago on ATF ? if so, how did they turn out ? I can't remember seeing them. If not, then sorry !

Ayup David...

It's my lousy memory that's at fault then. But I'm sure whoever it was, he's still on ATF.

The upper surfaces have got their red bits, I will leave it to dry overnight and then add the red panels to the undersides tomorrow.

Great paintwork David. This one will add some colour to the shelf when it's finished.
