    The "fault finding grey" is a very unforgiving color 🙂
    but not at all bad to look at in your pictures Allan (@kalamazoo)!

    A bit more detailing and touch up of the paint, ready for a coat of silver ! ------ photo colour is different due to a change of light globe to LED !

    Those LED's do indeed give a different light. Said to be closer to daylight, but sometimes I do miss the warm glow of lightbulbs. Anyway, your progress towards the silver is looking good. Looking forward to the painted plane Allan (@kalamazoo).

    Thanks Erik, the LED is much brighter but I'm not sure about the colour, a coat of silver on, MM 1781 with some Tamiya X 22 mixed in !
