    Looking very nice, Spiros (@fiveten). It took some extra work when I built mine several years ago, but it comes out well in the end. Decals may still prove to be a problem.

    The paint came out very nicely, Spiros (@fiveten). Have you figured out the decal situation?

    Fabulous paint job, Spiro (@fiveten)! I love those old 50's jets. It seems like there was a new type rolling out of the aircraft factories every week. The technology was changing so quickly in those days. Its nice to see an older kit done so nicely.

    Thanks my friend @gblair! Trying to locate suitable roundels was not successful so far, I might proceed with the current ones, attaching the two more off-registered ones to the undersides.

    Really good progress on the painting, Spiros @fiveten
    Agree, in those early jet ages there were so many different and beautiful aircraft.
