This is really looking cool. Really like all the detail work you've been doing, gives it a real personal touch.

Thanks Stik! Time to fill it with stuff now!

No worries Bruce, it's been a bit manic here as well. I'm so glad I don't have to do a return at the moment, so you have my sympathies!

Glad you like it. The figure didn't come out quite as well as I would have liked but it's OK when looking through the doors. I wish you could get really fine line paint pens.

Most impressive work already Stuart, your graffiti looks fantastic and a brilliant addition to the interior. I do love the little joke you painted in! Looking forward to seeing more.

The graffiti looks awesome!

Thanks so much Gents - much appreciated. Apologies for taking a few days to get back to you, I've been up north for a few days and off-line (hotel wifi was crap).

I've pretty much finished the interior now - I'll be onto the rest of the body soon.

Hi All,

A quick update for you. I've got the hull together and I'm working on the seams. I've given some of it a dollop of Humbrol number 1 primer to see how much more filling I have to do. It's been a fun kit thus far although the fit in places isn't stunning. There are a few differing options for the crew hatches but this was the best one I could come up with. There will be a big gun thing on the pintle mount.

I've also drilled out the exhausts.









I've got a bit more filling to do, and some more bits to add to the hull, and then it's onto painting!

Cheers!

Well done, young Stuart. Did you know that Kilroy was a real guy? A rivet counter, nonetheless.

Great interior Stuart! The exterior is looking good to.

Excellent work already! Way to go man!

I love the story of Kilroy!
