Just as a heads up, Tamiya Semi Gloss Clear is NOT Semi Anything. It's straight up gloss. Now I have to wait for it to dry and I'm just going to flat coat the damn thing.

Well it's finished but not without incident. I was painting the black around the cockpit and when I took off the masking, it took the roundels off completely off the model. I had to scramble to fix it my sanding, repainting and using the low-viz ones. Up close it looks like crap. I'll fix it properly in a couple of weeks. Now it's going to a model show this weekend.

Low viz decals don't make it look like crap, Mike! That's a winner! Best of luck to you!

Nothing bad about that Mike, that's an absolute stunner! Very well done.
Where did the gun thing fit, did it fit on the undersides?
