It's turning out well Jeff, despite all the filling.

Thanks everyone. Here is the last update for today. Had lots of table time as we have had rolling thunder storms moving through the area all afternoon and now into the evening with more to come.

I decided on a very dark green to go with the olive as a couple of photos and colour profiles suggest this combination.

Cheers,

Jeff

The early bird catches the worm as they say so I went straight to the work bench this morning and got at it.

Not too many decals, just national markings, aircraft number and kill markings. No stencilling what so ever so it did not take too long. The decals were excellent to work with.

After the decals it was time for landing gear and drop tanks.

Bu**er....I didn't get enough weight into the nose so she is tail heavy!

A few more bits and bobs and some touch ups and she will be done. It is raining here again today so perhaps this afternoon.

Cheers,

Jeff
