The half-black/half-white undersides are done....

First coat on....
The beauty of these Revell Aqua-color acrylics is that they'll be dry in about 30mins, so the next coat can go on soon!

As much as I would like to, I'm afraid a split build is in order.Old_Tonto wrote:Nice one Darren.

I work nights, and I didn't even manage to get four hours when I came in from work yesterday!
However, once I've had my Cheerios, I'll be sorted to do the camouflage....!

Painting done, canopy and prop on, and now up on its feet for the first time...
The exhausts still need painting and fitting, but that's about it.
I'm thinking this will be done before I have to work tonight!

Looking good. You should be finished with plenty of time left.

Calling this one done!
There are a couple of minor details that I need to add, such as the serial number, machine-gun port covers and yellow prop tips, but I'll get to them later.
I'll get some better pics tomorrow, once I come home from work!
