Nice work. did you thin the wing trailing edge from inside before gluing? That's the one and only "ding" on this kit, thick wing edge.

Yes I did, Tom. Still not enough TBH but a shed-load better than 'OOB'.

Some self explanatory progress shots.

PLW done with W & N oils (dark green & Paynes Grey for the topside, a dark bluish grey mix for the underside). Decals all on, a few from a 1993 Aeromaster sheet the rest from the kit.

t's already moved-on from here as yesterday I managed to get the (substantial) exhaust plume sprayed and today added some oil effects for streaks and leaks etc.

Thanks for taking the time to look and / or comment folks.

It’s looking pretty pretty good

Excellent work, Ian @ij001

Looking superb, Ian @ij001
You definitely got more out of this kit than I was able to.
Detailing on the landing gear and weathering looks very nice.
