Great work, but it won't win in the aesthetics department. With me anyway :grin:

Thanks everyone, she isn't a looker but the Canberra was subject to this quite a few times. The T.17, T.22 and B.6(MOD) among them, all had odd or alternative noses to what they were built with! :lol:

Absolutely brilliant, one of the best but hardiest colour schemes to get right, but you nailed it right on the head.

Would you believe I brush painted the white!!??. Didn't follow my usual record of a messy white finish. This time I used gloss white whereas usually it's matt, perhaps that's the answer!. (Thanks by the way!).
