A couple of little hiccups there by the looks of if George, easy fixed though. See you again in a few days.

Nice work Geo! Sometimes I'll paint things that I know will be covered up... just because.

Thanks guys, seams filled, about to paint when SWMBO decides WE need to go to P.G.. Just as well as I need new work pants and she has weekly physio. Does anyone know if the upper wing roundels would have been changed over on this aircraft

Did you mean Canadian roundels ?

Those are perfect Karl. The kit does come with the later roundels. Thank you.

Just noticed the screen(?) inside the intakes in the lower photo

Your doing the short nacelle version so I reckon you won't have to worry, it may be perculier to the long nacelle versions shown in that picture.
Though It also just might be the angle the picture was taken making things look a bit funny as I can't find any other F.3's showing a screened intake ?

Got that right Wayne. The help on this site is fantastic. Doing the fiddly bits, not much to show so I put it all in one photo.....fuselage band, landing gear, wheel well covers and I mounted the scoops.

That looks good George and your right, we get good help on the forum, from you in particular.
Also wondering about the upper wing roundel on the second pic from Karl, have noticed the starboard roundel (left as looking at it), has no bullseye! Is that usual!

Thanks Vic and Wojtek. Was looking at the roundel as well, so taking a page out of Wojteks book, I started playing with the image and my conclusion is that it is washed out by the sun's reflection.
Fuselage band is masked and the bottom color is on. Little bits continue.

Little bits...
...and of course, I can see where I forgot to touch up one after it was snipped from the sprue.

Thank you kindly. Starting the top colors. Hoping to have the camo and gloss on before I head back to camp and then, dare I say it, maybe try for a third build.
