Welcome, but don't expect too much - it's gonna be very simple kit on the stand 🙂

Welcome, currently I'm waiting for the weather to get cooler, so I could finish painting...

I have this kit in the stash to do one day... Following! Quick question... How big (in mm) is the Quickboost attenna? Need one for a different kit.

Painted today the undersides using Black Grey as a base and shading done using Night Black (both by Hataka). But it seemed too bright to me so I oversprayed thinned Mr Color No.2 Black and it's drying roght now.
@Gordon: please find the pics of the antenna (pics 8 & 9) - I managed to brake it off during painting 🙂

Thanks Erik. I'll upload more pics today I hope to show the end result, which is bit darker and subtle.

Small updated, the kit has been decalled, varnished and washed. I'm playing with the details currently - correcting canopy frames, painting MGs and so forth.
@Cuajete: had the same issue with the window here, please have a look at pic 11, I sanded the piece and used Micro Cristal Clear.

Thanks. However the finish has been postponed - I was able to damage the tail fin while fighting to rig the aerials (succeded by the 4th approach 🙂 ) Now I need to find a time to fix it and then the project will be over. Stay tuned!

That's all folks! Last pics have been uploaded 🙂 Next Wellie will be an Airfix one, but I have to buy it first😉
