:rofl:

Thanks Gents - I needed the laugh.

It's getting better - I can at least go for some 'exercise' now. but I am following the RICE principle as much as possible!

And I have made some progress - Canopy on and filled, Guns on and intakes/bays painted.

Thanks Gents!

I'm going to have to take another look at the painting. The colour call out is medium sea grey - but to my mind that's far to dark when compared to an actual aircraft...

I thought that was a picture of your build!

Probably was somewhat darker when brand, sparking new. Good call to review the colors.

And that photo is taken in direct bright sunlight. Depending upon lighting the color may look lighter or darker.
