Lovely job Andy.

Good work there Andy!

Thanks guys! Not much progress in the last couple of days as 've had a big week back at work and have been too tired at night to do much. Anyway I've painted the OD anti-dazzle nose and have been working on other minor parts such as bombs and painting gear doors. These will be my next step to install, hopefully tonight, as well as putting some weight in the engine cowlings.
To answer your question Terry, small nose windows are provided but you need to cut the holes out in the nose area, I wasn't confident enough to do this so decided to go will the other option of black decal windows which are also provided.
