I think you got that tail wheel assembly spot on John.

What colour are you using for you u/c bay primer? It looks a sort of greeny yellow?

Ah it's that is it - I have Zinc Chromate Green but not the yellow - I'll have to see what I can mix up.

Ummmm........I think we all know better than that John. With the amount of research that you put into your builds it's hard to think that you'd be making some of these details up. :giggles:

Stuart, Testors 1/4 oz. line has a good yellow chromate enamel if that's available in your AO. :grin:

Humbrol Pale Yellow 81 is close to Yellow Zinc Chromate. Tamiya XF-4 Yellow Green is also a good substitute for the stuff.
