Mainly due to the simplicity of the kit and the OOB nature of the build progress has been quick. The main airframe is complete. Fuselage joins only needed a light sanding to look respectable, upper wing-to-fuselage join needed a little bit of filler and a sanding to tidy the blend. I did the canopy framing before attaching it to the plane (I always do it that way, I find it quicker and easier).
She was now ready for paint! I masked the canopy and then sprayed the nose yellow (Hu24) and the tail fin red (Hu60) then, when dry, I masked up those areas and I am now ready for the main colours, underside and top, which I am hoping to get done later tonight.
Here's where we are now:
I reckon she'll be done this weekend. I'm really enjoying this one, I'm glad this GB was suggested chaps, well done!
