Looks like a great start Craig. If your looking for alternative manufacturer's colours this site is worth checking out.

Re: Craigs 1/72 Recon Saab Lansen
hi cut the tailpipe face off so i could fill the bad seem inside easier -painted and added a spare exhaust face i had spare then attached that and the cockpit to the fuselage side and in turn glued the 2 fuselage half's together and then the upper wings to the lower wing piece
wings not attached to fuselage yet
might need to add a 1-2mm packing piece to the underside fuselage section just in front of the wings to allow the camera/wheelwell part to fit better
cheers craig

Good start, the cockpit detail will look fine under the glass I'm sure.

I've always had a soft spot for the Lansen.
Am enjoying immensely and will watch with interest,
