UPDATE:

So, nowhere near as much done to the FWs as I planned.

Highlights included...
• Wing crosses added, waiting to see how well these decals play before going for the wingwalk stripes.
• Leather colours applied to the headrests and "bumper" on the instrument panel shroud. (Vallejo acrylics)
• Custom-mixed my RLM02 for the landing gear bits, applied that, may need another coat. (Humbrol enamels)
• Clear parts got two coats of green, masking removed only to reveal that apparently some of my liquid masking failed (or I missed it? Maye too thin??), never had that happen before. So I spent the better part of an hour slicing, scraping, sanding & buffing to repair that part. Looked alright last night, will take another look in daylight today.
• Rear control surfaces in place.

All little fiddly stuff, pics tomorrow.

Canopies and props just set into place for photo purposes, still need to do some touchups by hand on the framing.

Although, I just noticed, I have the canopies backwards. Red 13 is supposed to have the earlier (non-bubbled) canopy.
