A little weathering to the leading edges of the wings needs doing, but that's it to finish.

The fuselage roundel is not of proper vintage, BUT the film roundels were not 100% either. The one in the photo I posted earlier definitely has a thinner outer ring around it, so this looks pretty accurate to me.

Hope you like!

Thanks, Alan, although I must admit I'm not an expert!
