thanks to you all

ok here's todays progress.

added some crud to the upper surfaces, where ground crew would have been when re-arming etc.

added a bit of dirt to the undersides, not to much but can add more if need to
dirtied up the wheels a bit.

and lastly how she stands as now, need to flat coat then add the last section of canopy, pitot and radio mast then paint the gun muzzles.

then i noticed on one of the pictures i have the exhausts had a light greyish staining so i may add some light greay exhaust staining along the fuselage after the flat coat has dried.

i'm learning a few lessons with this kit, should've added the canopy parts earlier than i did and also the leading edge wheel fairings as i now have noticable gaps on both parts

cheers guys.
last night i added some light grey/green paint to my flat coat and this has faded the paint a bit more.
i now have to touch up the dirt as that has faded as well, also completely forgot the tail wheel so will do that today along with the last bits and i should be done later this afternoon
