@stephen-w-towle, thank you, Stephen.
Good news about the seat you found for your Mustang. Primering with white for those yellow markings sounds practical. Looking forward to that.

@johnb Really great job!

First round of OD is applied. will try to creating some shading with a slightly lighter OD during the second round.

@fiveten, thank you, Spiros.

@gblair, thank you, George. Together with a wash I think it will look quite okay. Looking forward to remove those masks of the white bars.

I've managed to prime my kit using Tamiya flat back and NATO Black . . . thinking I've found all of the boo boos and scratches. I'm sure one will turn up. I've also, been using Mission Model paints. Which are new to me and have shot the yellow stripe and the O.D. elevator as test pieces. It looks pretty good. Mission Models offers three different shades of Olive Drab which will try on this kit.

@coling, thanks a lot, Colin. Your Mustang looks amazing, I do hope mine will be close to what you achieved.

After a bit of touching-up here and there, the masks were removed revealing the white and red accents.
