Hows it going Carlos?

Hi david,
Unfortunately, progress has been s-l-o-o-o-o-o-w.....
My other hobby has taken up most of my spare time these last few weeks, so this has been going forward by only very small steps...
(Really I shouldn't have started something this big, this month - I knew March was a busy month for me - so the lack of progress is entirely my own fault)
And by cruel twist of fate, I now have a full week to myself, with very little to do - just as the deadline for this GB is upon me - typical

At the moment, airframe is together, and ready for paint...


...and is standing upside-down in my spray-booth - ready to be primed this afternoon.


I won't declare 'DNF' just yet - I'll get a final photo or two of how it stands before I turn in tonight.
Hoping to get props sprayed, spinner and fuselage band, and (fingers crossed) grey underside.

It looks great, Carlos.

Technically, the GB ended on Sunday evening, but we're allowing Martin 'til the end of today to try to finish one of his - we can do the same for you, Carlos. After today, though, please complete the model in your Workbench Window, or in a separate thread as David is doing.

Ah! - Sorry Paul - I thought it was the end of the month - that'll teach me to pay more attention in future..
There's no chance of me finishing tonight, with still the 3 main colours to go on (and dry betwen coats), decals, wheels etc to fix on, and final touches.

As you suggest, I'll switch to workbench when I update tonight.

That's looking good. I'll watch on your other thread.

David
