Glad you are because I am not. I have some milliput but it's a bit old and I have never got on with it so might use car body filler.

I've got about a fifth of a bottle of TET left. I've been seeing more and more mention of the goo so may experiment myself

It has its uses but it's an absolute pain in the exhaust system sometimes.
A nice attempt to reshaping of the top of the fuselage. But, if I were you I would use the part for the rear top that comes with the kit. All you would have to do, would be to correct the fuselage at the area of the dorsal turret and just behind the cockpit canopy. It could be done either by using your way or vacuforming with a wooden former.

just to add, that piccie of the prototype was taken after it had first flown; K8310 was silver overall at the time of its first flight. The photos of it as a single-seater were taken on 13 August 1940 at the height of the Battle of Britain, when it was mocked up as an interim single-seat fighter in case Spitfire or Hurricane production was bombed out. Its competitor was the nifty wee Miles M.20. In the end, neither were needed.
Model's looking great as usual mate.
Nicely done so far!

Got some more work done on the fuselage. Still needs a bit more sanding but I think I am happy with the shape.

Started the painting. I am going for early war Fleet Air Arm colour. Sky grey lower with Dark Slate Grey and Dark Sea Grey camouflage pattern on top surface.
